What Is The Council Doing

In 2000, the Comhairle carried out an audit of its own policies and activities set against a set of sustainability themes and subsequently prepared a report of how it intended to make progress towards becoming more sustainable.

The Comhairle is a member of the partnership which is considering ways of encouraging everyone to think about how they could better manage resources and how to improve all areas of the environment, both locally as well as globally.

Measures to improve the way we use electricity, lighting and heating within Council buildings are being. Staff are also being encouraged to use the recently installed recycling bins for used paper.

Many staff based at Sandwick Road responded to a recent questionnaire on travel to work patterns. Click here for results of the survey.
