North Lanarkshire Update


The Sunday Herald reports that the senior North Lanarkshire Council official who was suspended as the result of some obscure row over teacher numbers has now resigned from his post.

The reasons behind Andrew Sutherland's suspension, presumably on full pay, have still to be explained but if you ask me it looks decidedly odd that this official has been singled out, when those responsible for NLC's equal pay debacle are still at their desks.

A director in one of Scotland’s biggest local authorities who was suspended amid a row over inaccurate teaching numbers has resigned.

A spokesman for North Lanarkshire Council confirmed Andrew Sutherland had quit and said he did not receive a pay-off.

However, local SNP councillor Michael Coyle defended the official, saying: "My workings and dealings with him have been excellent. I think he has been made a scapegoat."
