Sir,
Cash-strapped Argyll and Bute Council is about to consider budget options for next year.
We were heartened to read the interim harbour’s report produced by Argyll and Bute Council last year which stated that all main harbours had to make money. However, recent clarification from the responsible officer has revealed that the term ‘all’ is a collective term meaning that all the harbours together must make money but that each individual harbour can still be allowed to lose money.
