At tonights full council meeting(all 51 councillors are supposed to turn up) i voted in favour of a Cabinet amendment to end all current consultation on the central library and archives and commence a new detailed consultation, to begin in June. The cabinet agreed that they had got it wrong in the two previous exercises and the details of the new process were still to be decided. This is without doubt because of the publics condemnation of previous one sided exercises the cabinet has put out. Hopefully once this 12 week period of consultation has been finished and the results collated, we can move on and make decisions which are in everybodys interests, and not just for political gain. The cynical part of me wonders why this has been put on the back burner until after the local elections in May, but i'm sure that's just me.
