Labour are at loggerheads with the SNP on plans for a new recycling centre booking system.
Three members of the opposition Labour Group on North Ayrshire Council have called-in the SNP administration’s decision to introduce a digital booking system to use the region's recycling centres.
“The SNP’s decision to introduce a booking system for recycling centres shows how out of touch they are. "Given that the island doesn’t receive the full waste collection that the mainland does, anything that is going to further curtail islanders' opportunity to dispose of waste has to be challenged.” "The benefits for residents include less queueing, better customer experience as users are guaranteed entry with no delay, and the ability to support less able users.
"The system expands the digital offering from the council and is no different to other systems used to, for example, schedule shopping deliveries."Unlike many of the scare stories doing the rounds the system would not have long lead times with slots being offered whenever available, including on the day, and the ability to book multiple slots on one day.
