INEOS's withdrawal of their coalbed methane planning appeals after 7 years is a huge relief for Falkirk communities #noriskygas

Communities should have the same rights of appeal as developers. Contact your MSP now to call for their support to strengthen the Planning Bill and include #EqualRightOfAppeal https://t.co/tgU6O5CEvt
