"Presumably the circular doesn't apply in Scotland though"

Well did it?


Well I don't think any DoT or DfT circular has ever applied in Scotland, because it's not their responsibility - it was up to the Scottish Office (or the Scottish Executive now) to produce their own.

However, no doubt there was an element of repitition.

I think that the Scottish Executive effectively said that they would follow the best practice guidance currently being drawn up by the DfT. That could well include guidance on the 'fit and proper' issue, but when the guidance will actually appear is anyone's guess :lol:

Well if there is no abuse of human rights that would suggest there is no problem with the way these issue's are being dealt with by the LA's at the moment, although some of the posts seem to suggest otherwise.


I suppose there's some mileage in that, but just because some law/measure/process/policy is compatible with the HRA surely doesn't mean that it's perfect?

Isn't that back to where we started?

Indeed, it seems to be only you agreeing with your own proposition.

What I meant was your proposition that everything was hunky-dory.

Hunky-dory, a fine album by Mr Bowie, anyway, since we are back where we started, it's a good time to go, there's something different about this site, it feels different, almost antagonistic or something, I dont know, yer a fickle bunch, thats all I will say on the subject. :sad:


So you mean when someone stands up to you and questions what you say then it's their fault?

I think you must be used to being surrounded by yes-men Mr Sirius.

Maybe you didn't notice the words 'debate' and 'discussion' at the top of the forum?

See ya!!!

Well they have gone, but you knew that. :wink:

But one thing is for sure, they wont be coming back, other than under a new name for a week or two. :shock:

What I say is let them listen to the Mansfield plank's words of wisdom. They could even ask the police to license them if they can find an act to do it. :lol: :lol:

Thats what I meant about the site being different, it just has a different feel to it than it used to.

See Ya!!! :roll:


ROFL - yes, I was just saying to Sussex the other night that I knew would crossed swords before.

Of course, you're wrong about 'the guys who used to disagree' - I think they went out of their way to get kicked off so that they could play the martyr, so made up a pack of lies about the site, but you knew that anyway because you are one of the liars.

In the last couple of days you have ably demonstrated where this site is right and you are so pathetic - you can't take people pointing out the shallowness of your arguments so run off in the huff with your tail between your legs, and those who were countering your arguments are deemed to be in the wrong.

If you can't stand the heat.....
