Looney Council fund costs 93p to administer each single £1

by Sheffield Lib Dems on May 1, 2013 in News
Labour-run Sheffield City Council has been hit by criticism over a £300,000 fund, which costs £280,000 to administer, roughly 93p per £1.

The revelation was made today by opposition councillors who highlighted the extortionate staffing costs of administering the new community fund.

The fund was unveiled by Labour councillors last week as a replacement for the popular Community Assemblies, which Town Hall bosses had sought to scrap. The fund has already been attacked for handing out less than 30p per person to certain communities.

This from the council that has 2 Judicial Reviews pending.  Is closing and bulldozing the arena that Jess Ennis trained in, closing leisure centres left right and centre because of budget cuts.


I am in an absolute fury.

It sounds like  a job creation scheme for administrators
