MADNESS

According to one councillor - who also happens to be a member of the local Standards Committee - one councillor attempting to influence another to 'call in' a dodgy delegated decision by a Cabinet member,

"is a dangerous thing to do at the moment with so many councillors being referred to the Standards board and I do not want Scrutiny process to be tainted in anyway and so will not sign the call in"

Madness clearly prevails at County Hall ! Scrutiny is entirely different to a quasi-judicial Council function like Planning or Licensing.
