You disappoint me, Nick. He's got you completely house trained in a few short months. Cllr Britcliffe has appointed himself chair of this committee and yet hasn't actually attended any meetings since 2005.

Check the minutes.

Meeting the Chairman/woman was actually present at, and could therefore chair, for which they were so generously paid to do

Re: Councillors expenses

Another issue about the child care allowance is that..aren't most Council meetings during the day now, except Full Council? If so, shouldn't the child involved be at school? (except holidays I know, but there cant be that many to claim so much allowance can there?

In 09/10, only 2 Councillors claimed Carers Allowance..Mr Britcliffe £204.00, A Kay £40.00 Surely there are more than 2 councillors with children?

Ken Moss mentioned Licensing Committee in his post #34, not Judicial Committee, which are 2 seperate items according to Council website. Please check your facts first.

Are you not collecting your capital letter allowance?

Go on, take it.

It'll make it easier for all us non-politicos to read.

I think Cllr Whittaker was making a different point which we have all missed, I certainly wasn't trying to have a serious go at him.

Cllr Britcliffe does seem to be the only committee chair who claims expenses but doesn't actually do much chairing though. It may be worthy of wider scrutiny.

So why no comment about Ken's point on Licensing Committee then if you are so defensive of your leader?

Garlinda thanks you for attempting to provide some sort of defence.
