Corby MP Lee Barron criticized North Northamptonshire Council for demanding £5,000 in legal fees from residents who took the council to court over a planning error. The council failed to consult people living close to a proposed warehouse site, and only consulted the wrong street. The residents applied for a judicial review, which was dismissed due to a delay in filing. However, the judge criticized the council's handling of the planning application. Despite this, the council is pursuing legal fees from the residents, who feel it is unfair given the council's own errors.
