Liverpool Indymedia

The Capital Of Culture Gravy Train

City Of The Dead | 14.01.2008 18:02 | Liverpool

Below is the Official Register of Gifts, Hospitality and other favours offered by Capital of Culture, 2004-6.

Below is the Official Register of Gifts, Hospitality and other favours offered by Capital of Culture, 2004-6.

The list shows the:

1.
name of the recipient
2.
date
3.
nature of hospitality offered
4.
the reason why it was offered.

Most of the offers were made by CoC staff - we have removed their names - on the orders of The Harbarrowboy et al. We have kept the names of people whose requests for hospitality etc, were unusual.

Unfortunately, the Register does not include the total cost to council taxpayers of the gifts, hospitality and other favours which were doled out.

(Perhaps someone with time on his/her hands will draw up a league table of the Freebie Champions?eds) On an initial examination however, solicitors Hill Dickinson and Radio City appear to be neck and neck.

Of course, this Register does not include figures for 2007. Perhaps someone should ask for that? NB: ALCB is the Alliance and Leicester.
