Standards Committee

With all the accusations of collusion and electoral misbehaviour flying around Neath Port Talbot, one would imagine that the council's standards committee was in permanent session.

We understand that the opposite is the case, and that the standards committee has not been constituted for at least six months. Could it be that there are outstanding referrals which, if heard, might prove embarrassing to councillors this side of local elections?

It transpires that the reason for the failure to convene a standards committee is that it has so far proved impossible to find an independent member of sufficient standing, in spite of intensive advertising.
