Well the latest development is a motion was put to council by Graham Jones seconded by I think Clare Pritchard (but don't quote me on this). This motion was put to council and spoke on by the proposer for about 5 minutes, who then withdrew it as the PCT have already said they will not be using Peel.

Council members wanted to have chance to debate it so voted against withdrawing the motion. An amendment was then put in by Peter Britcliffe which was something to the effect of 'We will have no further discussions with the PCT until they come back with a location that does not adversely affect residents'

This amendment and the resulting motion was then voted on by the whole of council.
