Library Inquiry – QC Costs shocker!

June 11, 2009 · Leave a Comment

There have been many rumours circulating about how much the Council is paying to be represented by a QC at the recent Library Inquiry at the Floral Pavillion.

I thought no point in messing about so I asked the Chief Exec.   He instructed the Head of Law to respond to me and the cost he is telling me is between £15 and £20k.   His response to me is below:

I have been asked by Steve Maddox to respond to this query.

The cost will probably be in the £15-20K range depending on the final time taken on the matter.  In the first instance I expect I will pay this from the Legal Fees budget.

Regards
