Rejected petition Replace the Directors of British Waterways
More details
British Waterways has recently endured a period of gross mismanagement resulting in the company becoming unviable.
The result of this is that BW is to be converted into a charitable trust.
The downside of this is that the current board of directors, whose incompetence and greed have created this situation, are to be retained!
This petition is to lobby for the replacement of the current board, and the new charity to have a board which is representative of all waterways users.
