Dumfries’ sheriff court has been described as “crumbling” by a politician who lashed out at the Scottish Government for failing to cough up cash for repairs.
Almost £500,000 is needed to carry out work at both Dumfries and Stranraer Sheriff Court buildings, according to the figures obtained by the Scottish Conservatives from the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service.
And local MSP Finlay Carson has slammed the Scottish Government and accused it of “taking its eye off the ball over crumbling court buildings”.
