"COUNCILLORS have been left red-faced after it emerged they gave the go-ahead for a lap-dancing club in Dunfermline, without knowing what they were doing. The licensing board last week granted a licence transfer to the new owners of the old Robins Cinema in East Port, which until last year housed nightclub Déjà vu. But when the application came up for approval the board was not made aware of the lap-dancing plans and members gave it the nod, along with a number of others, without discussion."
Carnegie thinks that their Justices are washing their hands too lightly of their mistake. They are after all the ones who actually take the decisions and they should be the ones satisfying themselves that everything is above board. The mistake is therefore their own and they should just admit as much, instead of blaming the officials that work for them and can't answer back.
