Evening ATC operations question!

Hi Guys,
I've just noticed that from the turn of this year ATC operations at my local International Airport has change in that at night, the same controller works both radar and tower communications at the same time and passes flights between the two frequencies.
Is this normal and does it work without problems or is it a cost cutting exercise?
And does it mean that the one controller operates from the tower with a visual of the airfield whilst also having a radar screen to refer to?
