Another City Academy Press release!

Press Release:

For immediate use: Tuesday 5th February 2008

GREEN PARTY DISMISSES VALUE OF CONSULTATION

The Croydon Green Party calls upon the Council Cabinet Sub Committee to dismiss the results of the City Academy questionnaire (1).

Commenting on the questionnaire results, Green Party spokesperson Shasha Khan said:

“It has come to light that the total cost of holding this sham of a public consultation is close to £100,000. Consultants have been employed, papers have been printed and the net return is a paltry 130 questionnaires (2). Surely the Committee cannot regard this number as representative.

“It’s just another example of how poorly this consultation has been run. With only 130 questionnaires completed at a cost of £100,000, that’s about £770 per completed questionnaire. “

Notes:

(1) The committee meets on Wednesday 6th February.

(2)The questionnaire can still be found online on the Croydon Council web site.
