Angus Council bans Gala Committee posters

Carnoustie Gala Committee were mystified this week when they were told by Angus Council officials that they couldn’t display posters advertising the up-coming Torch-light Parade and Bonfire Spectacular on Community Noticeboards located in the Town because – wait for it … the posters included a price, i.e. the cost to buy a torch in order to take part in the parade.

It therefore begs the question – what about all the other community events advertised which attract a small charge, normally to cover costs – e.g. coffee mornings etc etc.

Over-the-top bureaucracy we suspect!
