INSTITUTIONAL INCOMPETENCE...
Tuesday, November 25, 2008 at 08:10AM I note that Northern Ireland's councils have debts totalling almost £400m, Environment Minister Sammy Wilson has revealed. Ballymena, with debts of more than £30m, tops the league. News of the debt levels came as the Northern Ireland Local Government Association raised concerns about falling revenue and cuts to services. If these Councils are so incompetent that they cannot balance their books, the Financial Directors should be sacked forthwith. I fear that what will happen is that rate-payers will suffer as the already mediocre service levels drop even further!
