VISITSCOTLAND has announced plans to close every one of its information centres across the country ...
The “iCentres,” which are found across the length and breadth of Scotland, will all be shut down over the next two years.
VisitScotland said the closures were part of a move to a “digital-first strategy” that would aim to give tourists coming to Scotland information before they arrive.According to the tourism body’s website, there are 25 iCentres across Scotland, from the Borders to Shetland.When will the VisitScotland centres be closing?After that, they will begin a phased programme of closures over 18 months.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse. So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues. The ability to comment on our stories is a privilege, not a right, however, and that privilege may be withdrawn if it is abused or misused.
