Re 'Frustration over further delays for shows at Bolton's Albert Halls.'

I can’t see the problem. For the first 12 months charges to all worthy societies (am drams/charities and the like) should be no more than previously charged - as compensation for the inconvenience/loss of supporters suffered due to the unavailability of the halls.

As a ratepayer I would not like our compassionate council to suffer too much financially so suggest a nominal charge to cover additional heating and lighting costs.
