Stockport Council News

NPS Group receives a large amount of public money, but doesn’t consider itself subject to the Freedom of Information Act or Environmental Information Regulations 2004. They get round their obligations using a Teckal Exemption which states: – ‘a. in order to satisfy the first condition of the Teckal exemption, the controlling contracting authority (or contracting authorities) must possess “a power of decisive influence over both strategic objectives and significant decisions of the other legal entity” (i.e., the more independently the entity in question is able to act, the less likely it is for the Teckal examption to apply).’

We see from the reports below from Devon County Council, Norfolk County Council and Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council that they possess very little power of decisive influence – they don’t seem to have a clue what is going on.

There appear to be very serious problems with NPS Stockport and NPS South West.

I questioned Stockport Council regarding overcharging by NPS on the toxic waste dump school at North Reddish for a very shoddy job. The Council Solicitor, Barry Khan, the Chief Executive Eamonn Boylan, the Leader Susan Derbyshire and the rest of the Executive Councillors knew of the problems with NPS, yet they branded my questions on this matter “vexatious”.

“I’m trying to make sure that we keep the right issues in focus, and we don’t go chasing after hares.”

The people of Stockport deserve a better MP than Andrew Stunell.

Mr Parnell had a legal entitlement to help from Stockport Council and he had been asking since the mid 1990s for it.

He died before he got it. “As far as taking your case to the Independent Police Complaints Commission, I think the best time to do that is when matters with the Council have come to a conclusion.”

Thanks to the non-action of useless Stunell, matters with the Council didn’t ever come to a conclusion.

MP Stunell, paid to help, achieved nothing year after year, but threw a hissy fit when I tried my best to help Mr Parnell RIP.

“As you know, I am ready to help, but not in competition with Mrs Oliver”.

I didn’t see it as a competition. I just wanted to stop them killing this sick, innocent man.

Stockport Council agrees to fund repairs to Mr Parnell’s home, which is an odd thing for them to agree to do as he lived in a private property. Must have had a bad conscience or something.

However, Stockport Council intends to send in SK Solutions to do the work. SK Solutions staff swore at, abused, threatened to kill and were found to have committed perjury by Judge Bernard Lever against Mr Parnell, so Mr Parnell understandably didn’t want them in his house.

“I was pleased to hear that the Council has offered you a grant to cover some of the disrepair in your property. I hope that you will take them up on their offer and put in hand the work that needs to be done”

Once the LibDem road for votes to the airport is built, there will be traffic problems on the A6, High Lane, Dan Bank, Bredbury and in Cheadle. The only solution to these is to build to road on to the M60 at Bredbury. The last time this scheme was put forward it was to cost £1billion.

Below is a FOIA response from Stockport Council asking what work has been done on costing the scheme to the M60.

Dear FoI
Officer

Sorry not to have
been in touch. I have been very busy in the run up to the General Election, and
there is much still to do ;o)

My question is given
that Clegg, Alexander and Kramer, Smart and Mr Stunneybuns have been calling in
the press for the Airport Road to be continued to the M60, please supply me with
the Council’s detailed costings for this. I assume the Council has bothered
with this before LibDem politicians start to demand its
construction.

I remember last time
when it was £1billion under PFI and when the cost went up by £250m when it was
Derbyshire’s portfolio and she failed to notice. LibDems eh. What’re they
like?

Lots of
love

Sheila
