I very much doubt that the version is true. They may have "dismissed" him, but I would lay bets that he's gone with a lovely package and pension. Whether people here like it or not, it is the government cuts and polices that are to blame here. Gove can protest as much as he likes - he is directly responsible for poor housing conditions in both the public and private sectors.

Oh absolutely. People in these situations never face any real consequences and like you said, it’s the government that’s really responsible for situations such as these

It's a very complex situation and I don't think corporate manslaughter charges for the ceo is productive at all, he would have had no part in the decision making in this case nor even known about it most likely.

Gogohmm, you don’t seem to know how organisations work. The buck stops at the top, and if the CEO didn’t know tenants were made unwell from substandard housing, then he wasn’t doing his job. Of course he had a part in decision-making. Ignoring an issue is making a decision to turn a blind eye. Until senior staff are held accountable, nothing will change.

There's a lot of ignorance on this thread as to what Corporate Manslaughter is, who's the one prosecuted, and its relationship to what was referred to as the Controlling Mind prior to the Act.
