Amy Adams co-authored a paper to Cabinet a paper recommending an extension for ECan’s commissioners.
To be fair, she recommended an option less authoritarian than the one Cabinet decided on.
I can’t see how she didn’t have an interest in that decision.
Me neither.

Busytown: School bully, in reply to tim oliver,
linking funding to child progress sounds like a great idea - more money for those schools making slower progress, right, because they need the extra resources?
Unfortunately a common thread in the ideology of our current guvnors is that the best overall result in any endeavour comes from giving the most to those who have already been 'successful' - as they'll surely know how best to spend it. Plays out in many policies, regardless of any evidence or professional advice. Need doesn't come into it.
Strangely this always seems to benefit the same group of people. Who'd have thunk it.
