This week’s edition of The Orcadian is now in shops and is available online, here.

On the front page, we report on the news that Orkney Auction Mart is exploring the feasibility of a new abattoir in the county.

Four years on from the closure of the last slaughter facility, Orkney’s livestock could be slaughtered within the county once more if tentative and early plans come to fruition.

Also inside:

  • Life-saving heart screenings to return
  • New tourism initiative puts islands in the spotlight
  • Memorial fee for headstones to come into force
  • Alcohol-free Flattie bar reopening ruffles feathers
  • OIC windfarm decision overturned
  • Plea for speeding drivers to cut speed around schools
  • Election candidates speak out on the issues important to them
  • Date set for Gaan the Distance for Ukraine departure
