Myk's survival is good news certainly, but the cutbacks at Nothants hit the SMR/HER far harder than the planning advice area it seems. I believe the SMR officer is pretty much working single-handed at maintaining the database and supplying searches etc. It takes her at least 3-4 weeks to produce an SMR search after an order has been received, such is her backlog. A crap situation to be sure.
