North Lanarkshire Council’s leader says the authority is “faced with impossible choices” as it prepares to set its annual budget – and that: “Some services [may be] at breaking point.”
Jim Logue has now invited the area’s MSPs to a special briefing on Friday to outline the authority’s financial position as councillors get ready to find £30m of savings to balance the books for the 12 months ahead.
Members will set the authority’s budget for 2023-2024 on February 23, and face making cuts totalling £67m over the next three years.
