Message from South Lanarkshire Council "Everyone in South Lanarkshire is being urged to have their say on how the council spends its budget next year – on schools, roads, care homes and many other services. Like most of the public sector, we have been facing funding challenges at a time when demand for services has been rising. We have already had to find almost £155 million in savings over the last 10 years. The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and the council’s need to respond to it has increased the challenge this year. The focus has always been on protecting key frontline services wherever possible, but the current estimate is that in 2021/22 another £19.2m is needed to plug the funding gap. We want local residents and businesses to help influence future decisions now, through an initial public consultation." Please click on the link to take you to the consultation survey where you can have your say. Please do not respond directly to this post, your opinions will not be counted unless you complete the survey. https://wh1.snapsurveys.com/s.asp?k=160751679794

If the council turned down the heating in all the schools (children come out of school without jackets as they are too warm) by a few degrees they would save a fortune. Also turn it down in all their offices, libraries etc. Public are too hot when they enter the buildings. What they save from this would pay for other things.
