Council chief to resign

THE suspended head of a council department at the centre of a fraud probe is to resign and will not face any disciplinary action.

Dave Anderson, who was sent home by Edinburgh City Council earlier this year from his role as head of city development, is the second senior figure to leave the council during the investigation. Earlier, Brian Sibbald reportedly stepped down as head of property conservation for health reasons.
