Holyrood: officials blameless
Once again we have an inquiry which finds that no-one has done anything wrong.
Alistair Macdonald, directed by the Scottish Executive to look at the actions of civil servants following the Fraser report on the building of the Scottish Parliament, has found ‘errors’ but no wrongdoing.
I don’t understand this. How exactly is it possible to run 380 million pounds over budget on a project and then exonerate everybody involved from any kind of blame?
Perhaps protecting officials and politicians is more important than protecting the public? But isn’t there a word for this? I think it’s corruption.
