Council leaders face up to 'devastating' effects of the credit crunch

COUNCIL bosses met yesterday to discuss how NAC will react to the devastating impact of the credit crunch.

Chief Executive Ian Snodgrass said this was an "extremely challenging time" for North Ayrshire which, he admitted, is in a "position of disadvantage " compared to Scotland on the whole.
