I would add my voice to those of the previous speakers. I am exceptionally disappointed about this when the proposals are of such a fundamental nature and will have a major impact on democracy, particularly at local level. When people telephone us or contact us they expect that we as legislators would have information on a matter. It is a pity this has happened and in some way it will contaminate the future debate on this matter.
