This could eventually result in a charging model being introduced in order to preserve the facilities for future visitors.

That was the recommendation made by Flintshire County Council's Environment and Economy Overview and Scrutiny Committee this week as it reviewed a public consultation on the future of the facilities.

There was also scathing criticism levelled at Welsh Government for creating uncertainty and conflict over the provision of public toilets with its Local Toilet Strategy.
