ash, in case other equipment breaks down.

The Development Applications Board has given permission for the plan. Chief engineer Mr. David Arden explained the back-up plant would take over the job of mixing ash with cement to form blocks while the main plant was fixed. The emergency plant would be on site, he said.

DAB permission is on condition that the emergency plant is only used during a forced shutdown of the main ash-handling plant.

It must be dismantled within five days of the main plant starting work again, and can only operate between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Mrs. Kamla Wakefield has been given permission by the DAB to change the use of a property on Fort House Drive in Pembroke to tourist accommodation with five "housekeeping units''.
