(04/02/10) Liberal Democrats on Peterborough City Council have described the latest announcement by the Primary Care Trust (PCT) that they faced an "extremely challenging position", as they attempt to claw back some of the £9.6 million debt that the PCT is in:
As previouosly highlighted on this website, Lib Dems at the Town Hall are working hard to ensure that senior figures within the PCT are held to account over the huge deficit!
Liberal Democrat Health spokesperson, Cllr Darren Fower said:
“It’s very worrying that the figures presented to the Councils Health Scrutiny committee several days ago, have now inflated by a couple of million!
“It’s also worrying that the financial director in position while this deficit developed, has now been tasked with coming up with a ‘rescue plan’? If the plan is to make stringent cuts, which lead to an impact on front line service than the Liberal Democrats on Peterborough City Council and myself will be far from happy!
“I am keen that the Council sorts out the proposed meeting amongst senior individuals at the Town Hall and from the PCT, so at the very least we can discover where, exactly, things have gone wrong.
“Liberal Democrats believe that there needs to be les bureaucracy in our PCTs and more participation amongst the general public. This could end up proving a good example why we have this desire.”
