The report points to failures in the Council’s ability to procure and manage contracts and finds “systemic and cultural issues” have led to repeated failures in the way in which the Council procured and managed community projects.

Further details are on Waltham Forest Council’s website.

To be honest, I started losing the will to live on my first attempt to read it – couldn’t they publish a concise summary of the findings, maybe a couple of pages? Why the hell is it spread over numerous reports containing what just read like snippets from some hideous HR Management training manual.

Maybe its just me :-?

If anyone has the will power to decipher the thing and work out what actually went on, please feel free to post a comment!
