The Tory / LibDem coalition
running Leeds City Council look set to make a temporary appointment
for the Director of Children's services that could cost the tax
payer £1,000 a day.
The appointment, being made
through an agency, is for the head of the troubled children's services department that has
recently by heavily criticised by independent inspectors.
 Councillor Lisa Mulherin, Labour's children's
services spokeswoman, said:
"At £1,000 a day of
taxpayers' money, we are in for a very expensive burden as Ms
Brazil will need
to stay until a
suitable, permanent replacement is found.
"All this expense
at a time when funds should be directed towards recruiting more
front line social workers to safeguard the children of
Leeds."
