North Lanarkshire Update



As regular readers know I have been in touch with politicians in North Lanarkshire over the Council's latest foot-dragging behaviour in relation to equal pay.

 As soon as I have any further news I'll share the details on the blog site, although you would think the least that Scotland's fourth largest Council could do is to give people a firm date for the process to be completed.
