BID APPEAL INJUSTICE

News for the 35 who signed the appeal on 29th November, and the 30 who sent letters as required on Tuesday 18th December.
Christine Gresswell on behalf of Derek MacKay,MSP, has stated that the Scottish Government has no power to prevent BID registering a private company on 19th January 2013.
This despite an appeal pending !!
I received a letter dated 19th December from Kenneth Gibson,MSP in which he states that " Derek Mackay will adjudicate on this matter. However, given the information supplied by North Ayrshire Council, it would seem that the BID ballot is unlikely to be overturned ".
So, the minister in charge of promoting BID, Derek Mackay, will decide the outcome of our appeal.
The appeal referred to Scottish Ministers, but now is it only Derek MacKay ?
IS THIS DEMOCRACY IN SCOTLAND ?
I notice his remit also includes elections. What chance of a fair vote in the referendum ?
