AFTER the substantial increases in Council Tax in recent years, I was amazed to read in the Malvern Gazette that five second tier posts have been approved by Malvern Hills District Council. Such posts are inevitably going to be highly paid and will put a further burden on resources and ultimately the level of Council Tax.
I can only hope that councillors were satisfied that there would be staff savings elsewhere and that overall the staff salary bill will remain the same!
