Aged care changes

WITH the announcement by the Southern Grampians Shire of its in-principle intention to transition out of providing aged and disability services, mayor Bruach Colliton said the decision was not taken lightly and council would be consulting with staff, clients and the community to see how to best go ahead with the process if it was confirmed.
