Answered by Stewart Maxwell on 28 Feb 2008 · 7 days after it was lodged, on time

The provision of local services and facilities is the responsibility for Aberdeen City Council to address. Aberdeen City Council is discussing a new grant stream to support displaced clubs. Clubs can bid into this for travel costs to other ice rinks. It is understood that the ice hockey and skating clubs are exploring options to travel together to Dundee.
