Dear Mr Gove

PUBLIC INQUIRY INTO FRAUD AND THEFT OF PUBLIC FUNDS RELATED TO THE 6 PFI SCHOOLS IN EXETER

There is prima facie evidence to support my claims of the subject title. In particular,I refer to the Health and Safety Files (HSF) and the Operation Maintenance Manuals (OMM) for the 6 PFI schools in Exeter.

I have had recent access to these 6 HSF/OMM and these documents confirm fraud and theft of public funds from the £400 million central funded project on the 6 PFI schools in Exeter.

The HSF/OMM also confirms the school buildings have not been designed, constructed and operated in accordance with Construction Design Management (CDM) Laws and Building Regulations. These HSF/ OMM also confirms the welfare and H&S of students and staff have been wilfully comprimised.

The 64K$ dollar question now is: Is such fraud, irregularities and anomalies isolated to Devon? I fervently do not believe it is because such skulduggery is a nationwide problem on PFI Projects, be it schools, hospitals, police stations etc.

I look forward to hearing your action plan to route out such flagrant fraud and safeguard our children in these Exeter PFI boondogle schools. There needs to be a 100% improvement in the current transparency, accountability and security (TAS) of central funded projects and this can only be achieved if PFI projects are subjected to TAS and early publication of the HSE and OMM must be a prerequsite.

Currently, there is NO TAS and no security ringfence in place on PFI projects. Moreover and more importantly TAS is not seen to be working at the Department of Education and your Office in particular.

With thanks

Yours sincerely

Bradshaw has had this brought to his attention many times over a number of years and steadfastly refused to act. Now the BBC is involved he is outraged. MPs eh, can’t trust ’em.

Dear Mr Gove

I have no desire to beat about the bush; hence, if you dont pull your finger out sharpish, there will be a need for body bags at one of the Exeter PFI schools. The latest debacle related to these schools is the fraudulent water testing at the schools carried out by Carillion.

As you are aware, I have written to you several times on this matter but you have chosen to turn a blind eye.

These PFI schools in Exeter are unfit for purpose and an immediate public inquiry should be called regarding the ongoing fruad and theft of public Funds by Carillion and bent Local Authority Officers at the Devon County Council.

Yours in disgust

“A company employee attempted to cover up a test result for the amount of iron in a school’s water supply, a BBC South West investigation has found.

Carillion provides infrastructure services at six schools in Exeter, including St Peter’s C of E School.

A reading there of almost 10 times the legal limit was deliberately reduced….”
