COMHAIRLE nan Eilean Siar is to receive an extra £1.2 million after revised budget proposals were unveiled by Finance Secretary Derek Mackay.
Na h-Eileanan an Iar SNP MSP Alasdair Allan has welcomed the news saying the SNP budget would give Scots the best deal in the UK, with investment in public services and a tax cut for lower earners. Speaking after the budget was passed at its first parliamentary vote, Mr Allan said: ‘Comhairle nan Eilean Siar will see an above-inflation rise in their revenue funding – with an extra £1.2 million to spend on local services.
‘That’s a good deal for taxpayers and for public services and will go towards extra funding for the NHS, an expansion in childcare, £600 million for the continued rollout of superfast broadband and a pay rise for hard-working public sector employees. This is only possible because of the SNP’s progressive tax reforms, backed by a majority of the Scottish public.’
