"We act for Horsham Rural City Council. After discussion with the Applicant for Review, we advise that the matter has been resolved on the basis that the Tribunal directs the issue of a permit in accordance with the enclosed draft permit No. 98-047. The order is to be made by consent.

We enclose for your attention a withdrawal of objection by each of the objectors to the application.

Kindly confirm that attendance at Horsham will not be required on 30 November 1998.

Our client will notify each of the objectors as soon as we hear from you."

Maddock Lonie & Chisholm further advised by facsimile on 25 November 1998 as follows:

"We refer to our facsimile forwarded to the Tribunal yesterday. A draft permit was provided with the facsimile. The draft permit provided was an incorrect version. The enclosed version is the correct version. Please discard the incorrect version."
