csa staff go to the movies
Wed 08-Mar-06 09:42 AM

"The debt-crippled Child Support Agency was yesterday spending £8,000 ferrying more than 1,600 of its workers to a cinema show just 400 yards from its Black Country office.

Bosses at the CSA splashed out around £2,000 on six coaches from ... to take workers to the UCI Cinema from its Brierley Hill base.

And more than £5,000 was spent hiring out screen five at the venue ... "

wonder what film they saw ... any suggestions?

(... for the truth, see http://www.expressandstar.com/articles/news/es/article_87797.php)
