Only judicial review can now stop new Madras College at Pipeland

Fife councillors have voted by eight votes to four in favour of a new Madras College being built at Pipeland.

The decision was taken by Fife Council’s North East Fife Planning Committee following a lengthy discussion.

Only a judicial review being heard at the Court of Session next week can now prevent the school being built on the controversial greenbelt site.
