Financial and resource impacts of welcoming Ukrainian refugees to Stirling are still unclear, say senior Stirling Council officials.
At a special meeting last Thursday, councillors were told it was too early to say how much expense would be covered by government funding and also how existing services such health and social care and housing might be affected.
But officers gave assurances Stirling was on the “front foot” when it came to various aspects of managing the refugee situation, with councillors unanimously giving their backing for senior officials to sanction immediate expenditure needed to help those fleeing the crisis.
