A FORMER chief town planner has described  the proposed multimillion-dollar waste to energy plant and all the talk surrounding it as “science fiction”.

Addressing the large audience at a town hall meeting hosted by the Future Centre Trust on Monday night at The Lester Vaughan School to discuss the Cahill Energy proposal, Leonard St Hill said the reality was that it had no “footing in law” as certain legislative steps had to be taken first before the Cahill project got off the ground.

“What I’ve heard so far was the science fiction side of the proposal. We’ve heard the proposal, there is the reality which was alluded to in the debates in the House of Assembly of the Budgetary Proposals,” he said.
