Grand Jury

Donald Morrison

Donald was one of the new Councillors elected to Angus Council in 2007 and is one of the four Councillors for the Arbroath East and Lunan Ward, which stretches from the woods at Montreathmont in the north across to Lunan Bay along the coast, as well as half of Arbroath itself. He is keen on recycling and the environment and has been pressing the Council in implementing new ways in which recyclable materials can be collected. Having lived near a nuclear facility as a child he is against nuclear power, especially given the waste issue and believes that Scotland should be at the forefront of renewable energy instead, harnessing the power of the seas around our coast, as well as offshore windfarms.
