THE SNP has slammed Glasgow Labour leader Malcolm Cunning for his “weak” apology over his party’s role in the long-running equal pay scandal.
Glasgow City Council leader Susan Aitken has warned that the final cost of Labour’s Equal Pay for Women Bill could run into billions of pounds, and that the cost of settlements for women discriminated against would remove £30 million per year for the next 30 years from the city’s budget. Subsequent phases of payments are due to begin later this year.
