A Christmas carol

The Chief Executive, on instructions from Kay Cutts has advised all staff through "InContact", the employee magazine, that a 10% cut is necessary. As we know some departments are going to be worse off than others. Democratic Services will be safe with 3 extra cabinet positions to service as will some building departments with orders for laminate floors and fountains. The details including redundancies will be announced by Christmas - I am sure the Chief Exec will be quick to dispel the label of Scrooge.

If you want to get a Dickens novel out the library you'd better hurry as I understand the library service are to bear the brunt of these Cut(t)s with up to a 40% reduction in staff being talked about.

This does seem rather draconian even for the Parish of Nottinghamshire, so I'm investigating, I expect to have some more details in a few days. Watch this space.
