Scrapped ferry link wasted more than £700K

Graham Smith | 13:17 UK time, Saturday, 28 May 2011

Friday afternoons are clearly a popular time for Cornwall Council to post answers to FoI questions - here's another, in response to a query about the Penzance-Isles of Scilly ferry link:

The FOI request asked how much we had spent on Option A for which the answer is £724,606.32 comprising:
ECI contractor (design preparation) 463,507.96
Legal & internal consultancy 227,326.81
Other Costs 33,771.55

    I suspect it's more

    but we already know Cornwall council are not very good at working with raw data

  • Comment number 2.

    Strange, as whilst the controversy raged, expenditure was quoted as several million pounds and this was never contradicted by CC spokespersons, as far as I am aware. Is CC yet again being economical with the truth, if not with our taxes?
