Scuttlebutt doing the rounds is that apart from the dowery needed to unload the troublesome Thames from the public purse, CaRT, prepared to take over the leisure side of the management ie. locks etc, was reluctant to get involved with the weirs and water control/supply which, in their opinion, should be the responsibility of the government under DEFRA.
It was not the job of a charity to be responsible for flood control or public water supply.
CaRT was also wary of the legacy of the somewhat depleted staff pension funding pot.
However believe half of what you see and nothing of what your hear. ?
