Its just that its now called Kent Digital Services and will be embedded in the KCC web site. There is no sign of it yet although KCC were intending to take on 4 ex Ten Alps staff and the budget for this was set at £250,000. Maybe in these cash strapped times they are having second thoughts and will spend the money on essentials rather than luxuries!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
