They may also land the Council (and we as Council Taxpayers) in expensive appeals or other legal action.<br /><br />It was plain to many, including the Chair of the Planning Committee, that having two meetings with many complex applications to consider in the space of 48 hours was unreasonable.

Unlike jury members, they were not barred from turning on the news during the deliberation process.<br /><br />So I wonder whether they would have noted the findings of the Hillsborough Inquiry and considered what its findings might imply regarding their public duties where public safety might be involved?<br /><br />Alan WheatleyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-53212073438604053532016-05-12T00:58:09.634+01:002016-05-12T00:58:09.634+01:00You've got to be joking.
