EEAST has refused to answer our questions about why they hired him, what checks if any were carried out before Day was hired, whether the trust was defrauded, or why Day left after a year.
A spokesman for EEAST said only the NHSCFA could decide “what information is appropriate to give out”. The NHSCFA said it could not answer this newspaper’s questions until Tuesday.
Sentencing him on Thursday at Leeds Crown Court, Judge Simon Batiste told Day: "There was no boundary of dishonesty that you were not prepared to cross," as he tried to evade detection at various points by falsely claiming he had cancer.
