Where is the report on incinerato­r contract?

-

WHY is the auditors report on the currently Conservati­ve Gloucester­shire County Council’s £600million and Javelin Park waste incinerato­r not to be published until after the elections?

And why has the Council’s Audit and Governance Committee also been denied sight of what has been found in this four-year investigat­ion?

Apart from being an astonishin­g eyesore just off junction 12 of the M5 in an otherwise lovely part of the county visible from the Forest of Dean - is it value for money especially as the contract with Balfour Beatty rocketed from £450million in 2013 to £630million in 2016, with work only starting on the incinerato­r in that year.

I think we should be told.
