What Next? Can you believe it?

I have been reliably informed by a planning committee member that:
Letters of objection are not distributed to committee members days previous to the committe meeting, nor are they distributed at the meeting.
If this is true, the only person who will be privaliged to read the objections will be the Planning Officer .
What is the point of having a committee if they are not allowed to view evidence and comments submitted?
I have been told that individuals can email a copy of their objection directly to the committee members, if this is true how many planning objectors know/knew about this practice by the council.
I personally find all this hard to believe, but can I afford to ignore it. I DON’T THINK SO!
So how do I find the individual email adresses of the committee?
I filled the objection part of the planning application so am assuming I wasted my time , not very impressed what point is there in having it on if no notice is taken of mine and Joe Publics view?
