Only a summary of the report has been published
Nottingham City Council's opposition leader says he is "disturbed" by the authority not publishing a damning report into its finances. The council has so far published a summary of a review by Ernst and Young , which found that urgent action was needed to avoid "inappropriate financial activity."
He said he thought the council was "concealing" the report and raised concerns "due to a legacy of what's happened in the past." He told the Local Democracy Reporting Service: "I can't believe the lack of transparency. This [report] is something that should be shared with everybody, especially councillors. It beggars belief really.
"Is there something to hide, this is what we want to know. They need to come out and show the full report." "We've got a credible plan and we have commissioned additional work over and above the existing Financial Improvement Plan. We recognise and accept the findings and the seriousness of them.
