We have seen a post published today by Councillor Lesley Meenaghan regarding the bespoke markets. This is our response at this stage, which we will follow up with an open letter this week.
We believe the post contains inaccuracies and important omissions, which may reflect incomplete information available to the councillor.
Since stepping away from the bespoke markets, we have tried to remain outside political debate. However, we do need to ensure our work and the circumstances surrounding our departure are represented accurately.
Our open letter will be sent to all councillors and made publicly available, setting out the contract history, delivery costs and supporting information.
We hope this will give residents the full picture, clear up any misunderstandings and bring the matter to a close.
