It is a step in the right direction to read that the leader of Brighton and Hove Council, Lynette Gwyn-Jones, is in favour of scrutiny into the reasons for the King Alfred collapse.

With respect, we will be calling for an independent public inquiry, which would require the developer, Citygrove, to answer questions, as the only proper means

of finding out the real reasons for the disastrous failure of this expensive civic farce.

-Russell Hicks, Chairman, Campaign for a Better Brighton and Hove
