Dear Mr Majothi

So by May 2006 the Council is admitting the scheme is £2.40 million over the available funding.

Yours

Vicki Bates maintained I was being vexatious for raising this matter. Should she still be in post? In October 2005 the new school was to have cost 5.5 million pounds. By 15th May 2006 it was 2.4 million pounds over budget. They shut me up by claiming my questions were vexatious. They weren’t – they were uncovering fraud and incompetence.
