That seems just mental!!, at a time when West Dunbartonshire is trying to boost inward investment, and tourism around the Loch Lomond Shores complex!! The "powers that be" seem to be stating noise or shadow(!!!?????) disturbing the wildlife, yet, are happy to let any idiot on a high powered, high polluting speedboat run about all over the loch!! Good luck to David West on his appeal.
