I would have written earlier except I have been away on vacation.

I write to endorse the comments to date of Dr. Keith Holdaway, ( Dorset Echo, October 4).

I have attempted to understand the Local Plan and like Keith Holdaway, I gave up.

It would appear to me that the council have produced a document of “Total Verbiage” designed to confuse everyone.

I am a local businessman employing 20 people in the town developing Computer Software.

I also gave up trying to interpret the consultation document.

This authority is guilty of pretending to consult with locals whilst in effect depriving the locals of information by obfuscating the information.

I believe that a legal challenge to the process would succeed due to this fact alone.

Why should the council not speak plain “English”. What are they hiding ?
