25 February (Part 1) - Brown stuff
In connection with Caroline Holland attending
her last Financial Scrutiny meeting I vaguely remember the name of Ross cropping up as her
replacement Director of Finance. Prompted by a reader I thought I had better check up on who
replaced her from yesterday. His name is Ross Brown and Bexley Council appears
to have chosen wisely. As far as I can tell he has no history of allowing frauds
to take place under his nose or choosing the wrong software packages and most importantly he has experience of
declaring a Council to be effectively bankrupt.
Ross only lasted two years in Labour run Nottingham and is on the record as having had slanging matches
with Labour Councillors who apparently had no concept of his legal position.
