Keith Ashdown Spent Quotations

The fact is, there are not the checks and balances to make sure the money is spent well.

There's definitely a need to get the money on the ground fast. But I don't think any of these proposals would do that. What I see them doing is lessening the transparency. It's the opposite of the way we should be going. We need to know more so we can know if all this money is being spent in a wise and responsible manner.

It's ironic. This program was set up to save money. But because of poor oversight, it has spent money like Paris Hilton at a shoe sale.
