Short profile:

Argyll and Bute Council delivers a full range of services to its 89, 750 population. Education, social work, transport and planning all fall within the Councils remit. Its 36 elected members and 5, 000 staff aim to deliver quality services to everyone, whether they live in the heart of one of its thriving towns or on a remote island croft. The Council's use of new technology such as video conferencing, to overcome distance, has won recognition from many quarters.

Detailed description:

Alongside the delivery of quality services, the Council aims to promote the overall prosperity of Argyll and Bute. It is recognised as a major stakeholder in the area, taking a leading role in a variety of partnerships with other key agencies and working towards a shared vision for the future development of Argyll and Bute.

Although the Council's administrative headquarters lie in the town of Lochgilphead, the size and diversity of the area is recognised through its four Area Committees - Bute and Cowal, Helensburgh and Lomond, Mid Argyll Kintyre and Islay, and Oban Lorn and the Isles, each of which has the power to take decisions that affect service delivery to make sure that it meets local conditions.
