North Lanarkshire


A number of readers from North Lanarkshire have been in touch to say that the council is preparing to make settlement offers - to claimants in former APT&C groups.

Now this may be correct - certainly the trade unions appear to have been involved in 'secret' discussions with the council - according to local reports.

But so far no hard and fast proposals have been put on the table - as far as anyone can tell - so there's no point in jumping to conclusions.

If and when there are any detailed proposals from North Lanarkshire to settle these outstanding cases - clients will be contacted by Action 4 Equality Scotland with clear advice about what to do next - if anything.

Until that day arrives the best thing to do is to sit tight - because the rumour mill is a notoriously unreliable source of information. 

If any written information does come the way of any readers - then you are always welcome to pass this on to me - in complete confidence, of course.

Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
