AFTER reading today’s report about the suspension of our Section 151 officer Liz Wilkinson I sincerely hope that Bournemouth council is transparent in its investigations and findings from the independent investigator.

I was one of the council members who was 100 per cent against outsourcing several of our departments – as I knew that we had our own staff with their own skills who could make the changes and work if needed more efficiently.

It is true we have lost some really dedicated and committed staff and above all with years of experience.

We are in the process of losing three section 151 officers in a very short space of time. As a Bournemouth resident and tax payer we have the right to be told the truth and outcome.
