THE CONSULTATION FOR THE INSPECTORS PRELIMINARY FINDINGS IS NOW CLOSED
THIS CONSULATION IS NOW CLOSED.
Thank you for taking part in the last consultation for the Inspectors
Preliminary findings. All of the Responses have now been forwarded to
the Council which will be sent to the Inspector. This consulation has
been a difficult one with another organisation making statements that
the Woodland Speckled Wood was saved when it was not the case. The
Observer has run some fabulous storys but a complaint has been made to
them regarding the slanderous comments from unidentified people
missusing the Hastings Observer Comments page. A Freedom of Information
request has also been made. We have asked the Hastings Observer to print
a retraction regarding the posting these comments in their newspaper.
The Friends of Speckled Wood Managment Trust and HMRC Charity will be
making further Representation with these Responses through Program
Officer . This Response will and should be available on the Hastings
Borough Council website after the 27th March 2015.
This is now the fith consultation organised by the Friends of Speckled Wood Management Trust. The Old website www.friendsofspeckledwood.org.uk
we were using is no longer in our control and we would be grateful for
you to remove it from your bookmarks. Our main website is now at http://www.friendsofspeckledwoodmanagementtrust.org.uk and we will remain at this address.
The Inpsector will now have chance to review the consultation Responses
and make his final report. It is unknown whether there will be a
further consulation to ratify his full report and this will depend on
factors at the time and whether The Inspector has taken on board all of
your comments. Hopefully there will be a decision in May 2015 due to Purdah. In the
meantime please carry on enjoying Speckled Wood.
