Hide AdPaul said: “Could we soon see fracking in the Kilsyth area? Kilsyth is one of few areas in Scotland with a current Government licence to drill for oil and gas. Local coal mines found both gas and oil in the past, so we know it is there, beneath our feet.
“The Scottish Government’s consultation on fracking ends in about six weeks and the objective of this meeting is to explain the background as objectively as possible so people can reach their own conclusions.”
