Been a lot of burning this year , because the government is learning .Fair way to go before they could really do what integrated planners used to do - look after the environmnet . Pity all this learning and burning is at the publics expense and a few wannabe s whims >

Parliament supports a complete downgrading of the old LCC / VEAC independance - its independance is not constitutionally secure after the Otways enquiry set terms of reference that restrict its ability to recommend management diversity !
You wouldn't think these big picture conservationists ( so named) would stymy the independance of the scientific tribunal would you? "Can't answer that - not in our terms of reference" the scientists from VEAC have said.
