UP TO 50 Bass Coast Council staff may lose their jobs as the council seeks to cut costs by sharing administrative services with three other Gippsland councils.
Affected staff were informed yesterday that the four councils – Bass Coast, South Gippsland, Wellington and East Gippsland – are investigating whether a stand-alone unit could deliver their combined corporate services and IT functions more cheaply and efficiently.
