A special meeting of Stirling Council has been set for this week so councillors can discuss an upcoming watchdog hearing into an allegation that a councillor breached the Councillors’ Code of Conduct.
All seven of Stirling’s SNP councillors called for the meeting demanding that Labour councillor Danny Gibson be suspended ahead of June’s Standards Commissioner hearing.
Cllr Gibson is accused of contravening the code on issues of “respect and courtesy” and those relating to taking decisions on “quasi-judicial or regulatory applications”.
