Sorry - The Lobbying Power of the LGA (Local Government Association) will ensure that PEL's will remain within Council Mandate.Whilst personally I would prefer to see the "Scots Option" the proper way to go, the fact remains that " Jobsworths" will see PEL's as a means of empire building, and career structure. I regret that if you give a Council Official a means of power they are reluctant to give this up.
Still "Nil Carborunum Iligitmi" - We'll keep plugging away.
