He told members: “To put it in perspective, people pay more for their ice cream than they pay to park.” The minority Labour administration cabinet unanimously supported the increase in the charges. Councillor Norman Hampshire, depute leader, who chaired the meeting, said that visitors to East Lothian’s 40 miles of coastline expected quality and that needed income.
