Northamptonshire County Council: 'Mistakes' made in care contract

Northamptonshire County Council: 'Mistakes' made in care contract A former leader of a cash-strapped council - which is paying up to £2m a year for empty care beds - has admitted "mistakes were made" in the signing of the deal.

The 25-year elderly care contract was negotiated by Northamptonshire County Council in 2003 under Labour.

The authority said this week the centres had been operating below 30-50% occupancy for several years.

The previous leader said the deal was "unanimously accepted". BBC Northampton
