Edinburgh City Council
Edinburgh City Council has written directly to some Action 4 Equality Scotland clients - regarding new offers of settlement.
The council should not be writing to clients directly - but says that this was done in error - and their apology has been accepted on that basis.
If any Action 4 Equality Scotland clients have received such letters - you do not need to do anything at this stage.
You do not need to respond - and you do not attend any council organised 'acceptance' meetings.
Discussions are taking place with the council - because a GMF hearing is scheduled to take place next month - and the council is keen that this hearing should not go ahead - hence its desire to talk about a new round of settlements.
So, in the meantime just sit tight - further, more detailed, advice will be issued shortly.
