What all this golf expense? ; Letters

RECENTLY, expensive advertisements were placed by CarmarthenshireCounty Council in the Carmarthen Journal and the Western Mailinviting tenders to manage Garnant Golf Club.

The successful applicant will be entitled to a subsidy from thecouncil of Pounds 200,000 for five years to help run this leisurefacility. At the same time we are told that the council cannotafford to keep old people's homes open.

Wouldn't it be better, both practically and morally, to closethis golf course and use the Pounds 200,000 towards supporting themost vulnerable members of our community instead? Lesley WilliamsCarmarthen
