The Executive Councillor responsible – Weldon and project manager – Sager took no action whatsoever following this meeting (February 2008) to show them evidence of the extent of contamination on the proposed primary school site. They were eventually forced to do contamination investigations (kicking and screaming) but not until October 2009 when they had to prove to a public inquiry that the site was not contaminated. At that time and that time alone they admitted to the contaminated nature of the site.
