RELUCTANT to write again after having a letter published in The Tribune (November 1), in which I was critical of Ipswich City Council, State and Federal governments for not wanting independent audits of expenditure.
This time, however, I offer ICC sympathy for attracting criticism for reducing expenditure on “festive fun”.
No level of government ought to be spending what is likely borrowed money on non-essentials.
As desirable as festival fun may be to most, all levels of government need to rein in expenditure and begin concentrating on paying back debt.
