League table ‘does not scare city and county managers’
Environment Minister Dick Roche has signalled that he will publish the league table on the spending records of the country’s 39 city and county councils to show how each council performed in the past year.
The minister said local authorities must show that they are performing. “Local government is big business and it is far too important to be delivered in a slipshod or amateurish way,” he said.
