The Act came into force in 2005. It was fine until December 2017, then changes were made and in January of 2018 the council got worried about those changes. Deputy Penrose and the other members are not happy about this process. We are not at all happy with it. There should have been consultation before the changes were made. There has been undue haste in the decision and, as a committee, we are concerned about the process. That is putting it mildly.
