Your Voice? Your Choice? Not something I have personally experienced.

I turned up last week as a resident to register my interest in joining one of
the first wave of working groups and Cllr Michael Haley greeted me by
telling me to leave because this was not a public meeting.

Cllr Haley has since written to me and said sorry for his mistake.

One of the important things this group and in particular Cllr Haley should
realise  is this plan is the communities and the independent examiner expects
proper inclusive involvement in it preparation from all members of our
community. Surely they don't want to be starting again in six months time
when the independent examiner may take the same view as they did
recently with Melton Mowbray Plan which was rejected due to lack of
public consultation.
