  • Letter from Over 100 Rural Business Owners September 2020
    LETTER BY OVER 100 RURAL BUSINESS OWNERS to PM & SECRETARIES OF STATE 25 September 2020 The letter below is also signed by a further four businesses, represented by seven individuals, who requested their names be withheld from publication. It was published in the East Anglian Daily Times https://www.eadt.co.uk/news/sizewell-c-construction-opposed-by-suffolk-businesses-2700468 To: The Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP, The Rt Hon Alok Sharma MP, The Rt Hon George Eustice MP, Minette Batters, President National Farmers’ Union Mark Bridgeman, President, Country Landowners’ Association Stephen Miles, President, Suffolk Agricultural Association cc Rt Hon Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park, Victoria Prentis MP, Lord Gardiner of Kimble, The Rt Hon Therese Coffey MP, Dr Dan Poulter MP, Peter Aldous MP, The Rt Hon Matt Hancock MP, James Cartlidge MP, Jo Churchill MP, Tom Hunt MP Cllrs Matthew Hicks and Richard Rout, Suffolk County Council. Cllrs Steve Gallant and Craig Rivett, East Suffolk Council We the undersigned, as rural business owners, farmers and landowners in Suffolk, write to express our opposition to EDF’s plans to build two new nuclear reactors at Sizewell. The threat of Sizewell C has been hanging over the heads of many of our number for at least eight years now with no immediate end in sight. This would be tolerable if the Sizewell C project was for the “greater good” but we have concluded that it is not necessary to meet the UK’s commitment to net zero, and would be a slow, risky and expensive waste of taxpayers’ money that removes opportunities to make use of alternative, green, deliverable and cost-effective energy solutions.

    The Lord Gardiner of Kimble Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Rural Affairs and Biosecurity DEFRA Noble House 17 Smith Square DEFRA London SW1P 3JR 10 Aug 2017 AONB Office Highways Depot Dock Lane Melton Suffolk IP12 1PE Dear John Speeding Up Landscape Designation Review Process You will recall our conversations at the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Forum in June and subsequent discussion at the Landscapes for Life conference in Winchester relating to AONB boundary review. At the forum, we outlined the Dedham Vale AONB’s aspiration for boundary review. At the later conference in Winchester we discussed some emerging thoughts on how the process might be speeded up while not compromising its integrity. We have attached a discussion paper that outlines a method designed to speed up the process, while at the same time ensuring the full engagement of Natural England and any subsequent Secretary of State decision making process. It has the additional benefit of introducing the ability for sectors other than the public purse to financially contribute. We would welcome your views on this discussion paper and we are of course available to provide further information and thoughts if necessary.

  • Planning Inspectorate by Email 14 December 2020 Dear Rynd Smith, I Write Following the Verbal Submissions Made on My Behalf by P
    Planning Inspectorate By Email 14 December 2020 Dear Rynd Smith, I write following the verbal submissions made on my behalf by Phil North during the Issue Specific Hearings on Wednesday 2nd and Thursday 3rd December 2020. During the discussion on ‘developments in energy policy’, Phil North referenced the adjournment debate which took place in Parliament on the 5th November 2020, where the Minister of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, Kwasi Kwarteng said that “the argument for some form of offshore network review had been won.” The Minister was, of course, referring to a system of integrated and coordinated connections as set out in the National Grid Offshore Network Review that he initiated. As I have already pointed out in previous submissions, the review states that “the majority of the technology required for integrated design is available now” and that ‘”some changes to achieve an integrated network can take place within the current regime.” Indeed, as Phil North also referenced, SPR think the technology is already available too, hence their commitment to undersea cabling as part of the Scotland to England ‘super-highway’, bringing energy onshore in an integrated way. If they are committing to that elsewhere then I would suggest they could provide undersea cabling to onshore the energy connection for EA1 & EA2 at a more appropriate site, closer to a centre of population. In the past I’ve referenced the brownfield site at Bradwell. As the adjournment debate was referenced in the issue specific hearings, you requested that I send the Hansard link and copy of the debate as evidence for you and your team to consider.
