Cost of investigation and disciplinary process re senior council officers - LATEST

Wirral Council has responded to M Smith's Freedom of Informaion request as under:
Thank you for your request for information below. The Officer, who made the decision to engage Mr. Hewitt through North West Employers, was our Head of Legal Services, Mr. Bill Norman. The contractual arrangement was between the Council and North West Employers, it is common practice for Local Authorities to contract with this organisation.

Mr. Norman requested names from North West Employers and Mr. Hewitt was one of the names they provided. Mr. Norman had had no previous dealings with Mr. Hewitt and took his name as one recommended by North West Employers.

  1. Bill Norman's incompetence and laziness has cost us what, another £5,000 - £8,000?

    Was it beyond this man's wit to get one of his minions to Google Vic Hewitt, and find out that he worked more cheaply for himself?

    Wirral can't afford this incompetent, bumbling, interfering Direcgtor of Law
