The post you are reporting:
It gets a bit tiresome when you keep having to say the same thing over and over again.
Nigel DID NOT make the decision to close the toilets on his own; it was a Cabinet/Executive decision, but because he is Portfolio Holder for Access and PROPERTY Management, it was his name that went forward a being responsible.
I can't/won't answer for Nigel as to why he's not posted on here and won't speculate either.
As far as I'm aware, there's no Tory conspiracy - if there is, I'm not included in it.
I'm not making comments to defend or accuse; I'm being honest. I don't know about (DDC) paperwork regarding toilet closures.
I also understand that contracts given out by DDC to companies like English Lansdscapes for the parks and gardens, SITA for waste and Connaught for toilet cleaning etc. are usually for 3 years or more, they don't just go from April to the following March.
As with any business, you make a budget for the ensuing year, but again as with any business, you see things are changing for the worse - less money coming in from various sources, you have to make changes; it would be wrong if you knew things were going down the tubes, but there were several months to go before the next round of budgeting and you did nothing about it.
