Comhairle vows to boost its female representation
- Published
A Scottish local authority which only has men as councillors has agreed to take action to address the situation.
No women were elected on to Western Isles Council - Comhairle nan Eilean Siar - at May's local council elections.
Councillors have agreed that women be appointed to each of the comhairle's member/officer working groups.
The local authority said the move would ensure female representation in its decision-making processes.
