Council boss Jeremy Bath named in Parliament as author of Scott Neylon letters

NEWCASTLE council chief executive Jeremy Bath has been named in Parliament as the man behind the misleading and "derogatory" Scott Neylon letter to the editor writing campaign.

Wallsend MP Sonia Hornery used parliamentary privilege on Tuesday night calling for Mr Bath to be sacked, declaring the council boss had authored the letters and "shamefully abused" his $550,000 a year job funded by Newcastle ratepayers.
