Four council workers suspended as part of an inquiry into misuse of road surfacing materials
Four workers at Powys Council have been suspended as part of an internal investigation, the authority has confirmed.
The probe is understood to relate to the council’s road surfacing operation.
A spokesman for Powys County Council said: “The county council can confirm that four members of staff have been suspended as part of an inquiry.
“Suspension is not a disciplinary action but a mechanism to allow an inquiry to be carried out quickly and efficiently.
“The council cannot comment further until the inquiry and all actions are complete.”
A spokesman for Dyfed-Powys Police said that they had not been contacted on the issue.
