  • Leader's Report
    EDI NBVRG H+ THE CITY OF EDINBURGH COUNCIL Leader’s Report City of Edinburgh Council 20 August 2009 1 Ewan Williamson, Lothian & Borders Fire Fighter It was with shock and sadness that we learned of the death of 35 year old Fire Fighter, Ewan Williamson, on 12 July, as he tackled a major blaze in the city. At his funeral service, in a packed St Giles Cathedral on 22 July, tributes were paid to an inspirational professional, a member of a loving family and an outgoing sporty man. Lothian and Borders Chief Fire Officer, Brian Allaway, spoke of Mr Williamson as “a fire fighter’s fire fighter”, summing up simply and emotionally with “you were one of us and we will miss you terribly.” Ewan made the ultimate sacrifice as he did his job of securing the safety of people and buildings. We will be forever in his debt. 2 Modernising Pay Dispute in Services for Communities The unofficial action in Services for Communities which began on XthJune is still continuing. By the time the Council meets on 20 August this will be converted to official action following the recent ballot. The action will take the form of an overtime ban and a work to rule. Private contractors are now deployed on trade waste collection, recycling, domestic refuse collection and street cleaning. All services are running normally at the time of writing with the exception of garden waste which is scheduled to return to normal over the next two weeks. Regrettably, there remains the possibility that services could be disrupted further depending on any continued industrial action.
