Skidder Shorts - No 5 - Conflict of Interest?

When yobbish Sandwell Council (SMBC) decided to shaft The Public the so-called "cabinet" were presented with a "Fundamental Review". Needless to say, in the Secret State of Sandwell this has never been fully disclosed. A small part of it - heavily redacted - can be seen as item 7 of the cabinet agenda for 13th October, 2013.

(In passing, I should add that even though the decision to close The Public and to gift it to the College had been made long before 13th October, 2013 the redacted document shows that even at that late stage, SMBC had STILL not completed a capital appraisal for the project! As I have said repeatedly, this was rushed through for political reasons and was all "back of an envelope"- stuff! This probably explains the horrendously crap deal  the Turdmeister & Co have foisted on the people of Sandwell - still secret, natch).

With regard to smashing-up the architect-designed building paragraph 1.6 (heavily redacted) says, "Legal advice has confirmed that Sandwell Futures Limited can be commissioned to carry out this work....." (and so it came to pass.....).

Sandwell Futures Limited is controlled by Interserve Plc and Dalmore Capital.

Now take a look at the signatories to the Fundamental Review on the 4th page. These include Director of Improvement and Efficiency (sic) MELANIE DUDLEY who, therefore, was part of all this.

FACT - MELANIE DUDLEY is a Director of Sandwell Futures Limited!
