NAC PAYS OUT £60k FOR GAFFES BY ITS WORKERS

Published 5 Aug 2010 15:11

The council last year paid out more than £60,000 because of blunders made by workers - such as bricking up a cupboard with a tenant's belongings still inside and throwing rubbish out a window and hitting a satellite dish.

The embarrassing list of gaffes was unveiled after a Freedom of Information request and also reveals details of NAC employees:

- breaking a toilet seat while fitting new windows (£12)

- putting ladders through a display unit while plastering a ceiling (£60)

- drilling a hole through into a living room while fitting a kitchen (£100)
