Rutland County Council Finds £1 million!

Rutland County Council finds one millions pounds, but this won't stop the cuts.
is published on the front page of today's Rutland Times.

I noticed at Mondays budget meeting there had been changes made to the figures, I did not realise it amounted to this much.

Where did they find it?

How much more money is lost or unaccounted for.

We were told jokingly, Chief Executive Helen Briggs does not keep the cash in her office.

Did they find it up  the leaders shirt, I always wondered about the large bulge.

Public money is nothing to joke about and £1 million is not the petty cash for a council the size of Rutland.

What is going on at Rutland County Council?

Does Helen Briggs know what she is doing? surely she should know how much public money the council is entrusted to keep.

Her home economics degree obviously did not stretch as far as looking after the finances.

She can't remember how much she is paid or how much money has been recovered from Iceland.
