\u00a0I did attend the Hythe Centre for a short time on 24th October 2024 but only to let the EA know what I am going to do in the future.\u00a0 RBWM is on the verge of bankruptcy and things will come to a head at the RBWM Council Meeting on 20th<\/sup> November.\u00a0 The latest CIPFA Report (a horror story) can be found here<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My point is that history is repeating itself and we (actually the authorities) have not learned the lessons of the past.\u00a0 You only have to look at Grenfell, Horizon, HS2 and the RTS.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Here is my view of Deja vu in one sentence:<\/div>\n
MORE MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN?<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
After the never ending MWEFAS fiasco (from the mid-1980’s onwards and cost at least \u00a3100m) Partnership Funding was introduced in 2011 – which resulted in RTS Channel 1 being removed from the RTS project (\u00a390m cost to date) in 2020 – and replaced by the DHEFIM project – for which I anticipate there will be no mandatory Partnership Funding contribution.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
No PF contribution from RBWM = No DHEFIM?<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And as for the financial viability of what’s left of the RTS – that’s a question for the EA and Surrey CC.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I will now brief my MP (Jack Rankin)<\/div>\n
