Paying costs"IT’S right Dundee City Council has taken steps to unburden council taxpayers of the leisure and swimming amenities. Edinburgh and Perth & Kinross have already set up not-for-profit organisations.
I believe something similar is now planned for Dundee Airport.
It isn’t fair that Dundee’s taxpayers have been left to pay the costs for an asset that also benefits the business communities of Perthshire, Angus and Fife. — Skint.
[A spokesperson for Dundee City Council said that the question of charitable status, on a similar basis to the proposal for leisure services, has never been discussed and is not considered an option for the airport. There have been tentative talks about the management of the airport being contracted- out to another operator and a link with Highlands & Islands Airports, who operate Inverness Airport among others, has been one of the suggestions. The spokesperson said, “We continue to discuss options for the airport.”]
