Ms Pauline Foster:

One of the things that spring to mind is the number of times we have appealed a decision to An Bord Pleanála and the inspector has concurred completely with our view but the board has revoked that. We get the word that the board has decided to ignore or disregard the inspector's report - I cannot recall the word used by the board. We should get an explanation as to how the difference came about and how the board decided otherwise. The inspector is out on the ground and sees the realities we face, so what was it that the board saw?
