Episode notes
The speaker discusses the creation of a 'deep park' by a person who craftily includes obscure references in a bill to grant excessive power to a council. By using terms like 'appropriation' and referencing an old law, the bill empowers the council to control various aspects of the park, such as roads, police force, and bylaws, exploiting the legislature's unfamiliarity with the outdated law.
