South Wales Central MS Andrew RT Davies has slammed Cardiff Capital Region for its bungled handling of the contract to demolish Aberthaw Power Station, which is set to cost taxpayers £5.25million.
CCW’s Labour Chair Cllr Mary Ann Brocklesby told the Senedd’s Economy Committee that the settlement had been agreed, following a legal challenge regarding the way the body handled the process.
Mr Davies said:
“Taxpayers will pick up this £5.25million bill thanks to the Labour-run Cardiff Capital Region’s bungled handling of this contract.
“This is frankly unacceptable, as this cash should be going towards improving our public services.
“CCW’s Labour leadership have serious questions to answer.”
