To ask the Scottish Government whether it will raise with Dundee City Council reports that a restructuring of swimming lessons run by Leisure and Culture Dundee could result in a 45% reduction in the number of lessons on offer in the city, with lessons reduced from seven to four days a week at Lochee pool.
