The government has given Brent Council £1.75m over the past two years to help.....
1. those individuals with short term needs,
2.support vulnerable people
3.ease financial pressure on families.
Amazingly Brent has only spent £455 000 of this mone, so will carry forward nearly £1.3 m!
Brondesbury Park Conservative councillor John Warren raised this matter at Cabinet......"Council leader Muhammed Butt is forever saying that Brent does not get enough government money,but it is a complete scandal that government monies aimed at helping those in need remains unspent."
It is also worth noting that the government gave Brent £346,475 over the two years ......as administration monies......and of course Brent spent all the admin.money.
