Stick a complaint into Audit scotland and see what the next 6 months comes up with.

If they are having to chop school buses; after the emergency budget has been announced 2 million for a couple of airports ain't going to get past the budget committee. And the scottish parliment is going to have enough trouble balancing its own books to be handing out cash for it. I suspect 1 or 2 HIAL airports might be having to justify there budget as well.

I can't see them shutting the place after spending 8 mil on it.

But neither can I see them giving up and letting it go back to the old days. Its a fairly common issue with scottish councils that they hate the idea of anyone running a buisness and making a profit off the back of council property. Without the council having some sort of control over it and getting a cut. Which to be honest I think is the route cause of the issues with both sites.
