West Lothian people who rely on public transport are likely to lose out in tomorrow’s budget in West Lothian Council if a proposed £1.9 million cut in subsidised services over the next three years is agreed.
Councillors have been presented with savage cutbacks as officials pare back services provided to the minimum statutory requirements.
There are budget cuts proposed across the board in all areas of council provision from the loss of library facilities to community centres transferred out of council ownership. In the longer term the number of swimming pools is likely to be cut.
