So Betsi is back in Special Measures and Independent Members have ‘resigned’, did a resignation actually occur or was this a term to be interpreted as you have been sacked.
The recent Audit Wales report was clearly damning but it actually praised the Independent Members for being a cohesive group and that it was the Executive that were the problem.
The Independent Members it appears had commissioned a number of specialists to exam various parts of the services as they were not satisfied with reports and information provided by the Executives – this appears to be a total lack of trust by all concerned.
It also shows that the Minister has not had a grip on the situation for sometime and lots of false information flying around – she is trying to deflect the opposition criticism by appointing a senior Plaid Cymru Councilor from North Wales to take on the role.
