I’ve been a bit tied up with work of late, and I see that whilst my back has turned the LSC has crashed and burned in yet another JR (thanks LAG Blog) in respect of their tender process – immigration this time. I wonder how many families could have been provided advice and representation from the funds wasted on defending this raft of litigation and on the work to unpick the mess the flawed tender process has left, including the inevitable claims from those originally successful bidders who are out of pocket and have now been stripped of their contracts? It’s not ironic, its tragic how wasteful of desperately needed public funds this whole debacle has been and will continue to be.
