I would really appreciate, as I think many people would, clarity on how the decision will not then be affected by this. In other words, we are rectifying the process failure but the decision will remain the same. I understand that once the decision has been made by a planning authority or the board, it cannot go back and make that decision again. Its role is finished. Then it becomes a matter for the courts.
