| Morning Theo I accept your point that in his first few months of being a councillor Jason did attend more meetings then I credited him for and I apologise both to him and to you for getting my facts wrong for that period However his record over the last year is shocking and here are his attendence figures since 05/10/11 as published on the Hounslow Council website Borough Council, 29/11/2011 Present Borough Council, 31/01/2012 Present Borough Council, 28/02/2012 Present Borough Council, 27/03/2012 Present Isleworth and Brentford Area Forum, 17/11/2011 Apologies received Isleworth and Brentford Area Forum, 26/01/2012 Absent Isleworth and Brentford Area Forum, 15/03/2012 Absent Licensing Committee, 25/01/2012 Absent Borough Council, 15/05/2012 Expected Borough Council, 19/06/2012 Expected Borough Council, 17/07/2012 Expected Borough Council, 18/09/2012 Expected Isleworth and Brentford Area Forum, 24/05/2012 Absent Isleworth and Brentford Area Forum, 19/07/2012 Apologies received Isleworth and Brentford Area Forum, 13/09/2012 Absent Licensing Committee, 10/05/2012 Absent To me this looks as though he has simply given up on serving the residents who elected him especially the fact that he appears to have absolutely no interest in the local Area Forum where the most importent decisions regarding our local wards are made in my opinion Perhaps you or one of your colleagues could explain how he could possibly also be entitled to an extra £1100 a year to be the Labour Whip? To be fair it would not matter what party he represents as I would be equally critical of any councillor but it is also the fact that he is a local councillor and should not be claiming his full allowances For the record I abstained when the increase in allowances was voted on and but I did accept the increase when it was made |
