A call made by opposition councillors to reopen three public toilets that were closed by Falkirk Council in a bid to save cash has been rejected.
Instead, members of Falkirk Council agreed this week to explore the options for handing the toilets over to any community groups who want to look after the facilities.
Labour and Independent councillors argued at a meeting of Falkirk Council this week that reopening toilets in Grangemouth, Falkirk and Bo'ness would benefit elderly and disabled residents and boost town centres and tourism.
