A Portadown councillor has branded the decision of one of his Lurgan counterparts to disclose confidential information in a public meeting as “reckless and irresponsible”.
DUP representative Darryn Causby made the remarks in response to Alliance Councillor Peter Lavery’s decision to reveal council officers’ estimate that continuing to meet in a remote/hybrid format could save the council £50,000 per year at the council’s monthly meeting on Monday, January 24.
This information was provided to councillors at a behind closed doors meeting concerning the rates estimates and was included in a report marked confidential.
