Mr. Dave Walsh:

Some of them are kind of impractical. A good example would be a recommendation that the board should use local offices when it has oral hearings in regional locations. A lot of the oral hearings the board conducts in regional locations are compulsory purchase order, CPO, related cases that often involve the local authority so it would inappropriate for the board to be organising a meeting where people are challenging a compulsory purchase, possibly an application that a planning authority either brought or supported. That is an action which in some respects, where there is no local authority involvement, one could say is reasonable to save money for the taxpayer and use available space within a local authority office but it cannot be done in all cases. That is the subtlety around how the board has looked at each of the 70 actions on which we are leading.
