“There is no reason why this can’t be held by Zoom.'
An argument over local politicians being sent to overseas conferences at ratepayers expense has spilled over at Ards and North Down Council.
The council, via the ratepayer, will cover the £108 return flight to Bristol, the £40 train to Swansea, and the £200 bill for three night’s accommodation - a total of £348 per delegate. The council report said no appropriate council officers were available to attend the event. SDLP Councillor Joe Boyle said: “We are part of this, there is information that is sought after that could be useful to this council, and we need to know what is going on. It would be a bit strange if there is a conference coming up and we don’t have a representative.”
