Commenting on the Finance Secretary's trip to the North East to
sign single outcome agreements with local councils, Liberal
Democrat MSP for the North East and Local Government
spokesperson Alison McInnes said:
"The next time the Finance Secretary pays us a visit, he should
open his wallet as well as focusing on council paperwork.
"Services have been squeezed as north east councils struggle
with the funding settlement handed down by the SNP Government.
"The north east deserves a fair funding deal from this government.
"It's disappointing that the Finance Secretary has not taken
this opportunity to make a difference to our communities by
changing the funding settlement."
