A council deputy leader is being investigated by town hall officials after a complaint that he improperly interfered in the authority’s procurement process.

Mr Moore’s complaint to Ms Park says: “We wish to raise a serious complaint over procurement procedures that have come to light as a result of emails that have been obtained via Freedom of Information requests.
“And why one of your officers, Martin Eden, has allowed him to interfere with council business in this manner? “In the attached document labelled ‘Re Cemetery Shelter’ Martin Eden informs Quesir Mahmood: “With regards to the to the less expensive works, Kevin has confirmed he didn’t approach Artic for a quote for the UPVC windows and door but he is happy to do so as he knows the company and would be happy to order the work from them if they are cheaper than the existing quote .”
“Divulging the value of one contractors bid ahead of a decision being made, presumably so this information can be fed to another in order to win the work, is wholly inappropriate. Which tender to accept is a commercial decision, not a political one, and is for the council officers to make without interference from any elected representative.
