The council slipped out a brief announcement on its website at the end of August stating that the last review had failed to alter the suspension of the glass collection service. It is believed that the suspension is connected to staff shortage issues, and in particular a lack of drivers.

It is not only about the impact of the services being suspended, it is the long term impact I am particularly worried about.
