Dear Madam - Firstly I must put my hands up and admit not to having an in depth knowledge of the pros and cons of fracking. It would however appear that given the UK Governments support of fracking it will probably eventually be approved.
My suggestion is that FDC look at the agreement reached in Aberdeen prior to the commencement of oil exploration which established a multi million pound slush fund for the benefit of the local community to be used to mitigate against any damage done by the oil industry.
It is better to cut a deal which provides benefits to our deprived county than to end up with fracking and no gain to our community.
Yours, Win win is best (Name and address supplied)
