This means the decision will be discussed in a meeting next week, meaning the project should be paused until then.

Donate your Christmas tree to a goat... no kiddingpublished at 13:08 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January 2019
Sandish Shoker
BBC NewsNot sure what to do with your Christmas tree this year, maybe you could donate it as food for some goats?
I'm not kidding!
Goats at the Castlefield Kennels in West Hallam, Ilkeston are this week recycling trees naturally and slowly eating away at the 100 that have so far been donated.
Andy Williams from the kennels said they appealed for some trees last week and were surprised to be sent so many.
"Contrary to belief goats prefer eating leaves and the bottom edges of trees and obviously there isn't many about at this time of year," he said.
The needles on Christmas trees have health benefits for goats too as it helps their digestive system.
The trees already donated will keep the six goats at the kennels going for some time as they are currently only nibbling away at one tree a day.
