Ken, I assume that mitigation has been put in place re the bats and curl bunting. This application afforded no mitigation. Lynne, it will only affect any increase in tourism if applicants fail to provide mitigation for the impact that additional tourist heads has on our environment. I'd hope that all right-minded people would agree that mitigation is absolutely necessary.
