Board paid out £80,000 (€89,000) for undone library work
Anti-fraud controls were so poor in the Belfast Education and Library Board that it paid out £80,000 (€89,156) for work on two libraries which had not been carried out, a damning report revealed today.
The board was slated by the North's Auditor General John Dowdall for its failure to challenge potential criminal fraud by maintenance contractors and for undermining any criminal case that might have been mounted.
