Well spotted Captn Pugwash, this is the development I referred to in this thread in Feb:

It's too late for any further input - submissions against the proposal had to be submitted to the RPDC a while ago - the commission is now conducting hearings on those submissions. "Our" submission was to be presented by Anthony Houston (you may remember him from such threads as the best wipeout pictures one
) on Monday - I went along for a bit of moral support but they ran out of time, looks like he got to present our case today. It was quite interesting to see how these things work - it's all down to the letter of the law; forget about what is right or wrong, the side with the best lawyers will prevail.
