OVER the years I have attended several planning meetings - and I always had a suspicion that some of the decisions made were not quite kosher and could have been pre-empted.

The meetings I attended contained little or no debate.

Of course, I am not stupid enough to accuse anybody of short practice because i have no definite proof.

Maybe an inquiry should be set up to find out what exactly is going on. Maybe the Local Government Association and/or the Taxpayers Alliance could be involved.
