Loss of Post-Bus service  The failure to consult locally could (if one source is to be believed) be the responsibility of a single individual in Inverness who did not recognise the need.
Alternatively , it could be the Highland council as a whole did not consider it necessary

Finally , the community council was advised of by telephone at 2 pm on the day before the school closed.
