Sir, I was astonished to read an Argyll and Bute Council press release advising that there would be four dropin events for people to see the plans and visions for Argyll and Bute for the future.
When I looked more closely at the press release I noted that the four events were to be in Helensburgh, Dunoon, Oban and Lochgilphead.
When I enquired why there were no plans to have a drop-in session anywhere in Kintyre or the islands I was informed that, as a result of budget cuts agreed by the administration group, it was decided that a saving could be made by omitting Kintyre and the islands.
