Embattled Waterford Area Partnership claims local authority is trying to decide its future

Michael Walsh, CEO Waterford County Council, said the allegation that the local authority was trying to exercise authority over the board was 'simply not true'.
The new board at an embattled State-funded company in Waterford has claimed that the local authority is "closing every door" to its future existence.
Waterford Council's chief executive Michael Walsh has, in turn, suggested a "complete change" of the board and senior management at the Waterford Area Partnership (WAP), which is under investigation by gardaí, Revenue, and the Charities Regulator.
