North Yorkshire Fracking, Could other councils follow suit?

The first fracking operation in England since a ban was lifted in 2012 has been approved by North Yorkshire County Council who have approved a bid Third Energy to extract shale gas at a site near Kirby Misperton in Ryedale.

The council's planning committee voted seven to four in favour
My guess is that  North Yorkshire County Council was probably looking at the positive economic development impact oil and gas developments bring to the regional economy. Remember many councils are facing severe cutbacks. 
Many other councils up and down the country will be monitoring closely the situation in North Yorkshire. If the impact of Third Energy's activities turn out to be positive, it could serve to trigger other councils to follow suit.
