Consultants left in no doubt of fracking opposition Posted: 9:05 am May 8, 2021 SHARE THE consultancy company appointed by the Department of Economy Minister Diane Dodds MLA to research the viability of fracking, has been left in no doubt of the local Council’s fierce opposition. During a special meeting of the Regeneration and Development, representatives of Hatch Regeneris heard a united voice from the chamber. Independent Councillor Emmet McAleer said, “ If anyone’s in any doubt of the local impacts or perceptions of fracking, they obviously haven’t been paying much attention. It is deeply concerning. This affects every county in the North, particularly Fermanagh, Tyrone and Antrim and we need to be very aware that.”
