Northerner
Admin (Retired)

It was revealed yesterday that almost £20 million was spent on the administration process, which was millions more than was first predicted.
Health regulator Monitor, who appointed the administrators, originally budgeted £15.25m for the work but the timescale had to be extended twice.
Karen Howell, a founding member of the Support Stafford Hospital group who is standing in the general elections in May, said: "The cost of the administration process in itself is really appalling.
"A lot of money has not gone directly on patient care. My view is why could this money not have been spent on patient care or on recruiting staff."

Would love to see a breakdown of where the money went 😱
