|East Coast and The Wolds Target
A COST-cutting ‘Doge’ council unit will be going into Lincolnshire County Council, Reform UK has confirmed.
The Department Of Government Efficiency task force, modelled after the one previously run by Elon Musk in the USA, claims it will eliminate wasteful spending.
Nigel Farage's party has begun writing to the chief executives of councils which it won control of, warning it will be taking a close look at how money is spent.
Reform says Lincolnshire will come under scrutiny from the taskforce, which is made up of software engineers, data analysts and forensic auditors, and will reportedly be led by an unnamed tech entrepreneur.
In a letter to Kent County Council published by The Telegraph, the party demanded access to all "relevant documents, reports, records, data, minutes and correspondence".
A Reform UK spokesman said: "Reform won a historic victory in Lincolnshire on a mandate to cut waste and reinvest in local services.
