  • Review of the Site Selection Process for a Geological Disposal Facility - 'Call for Evidence' Analysis of Responses Log
    PROTECT - POLICY IN DEVELOPMENT MRWS: Review of the site selection process for a geological disposal facility - 'Call for Evidence' analysis of responses log Relevant work Ref. Organisation/individual Issues raised packages 1 University of Oxford Improvements to site selection process: Need to develop trust in safety of geological disposal WP1, WP4 and explain monitoring process. Science behind decisions should be subject to independent peer-review. Peer review should be assessible and previous disputes fully reported. 2 National Skills Academy for Nuclear Improvements to site selection process: From experience of MRWS process in Cumbria WP3, WP7 suggests clear, objective factsheets on geological disposal, widely distributed; series of engagement events; clarity on local community benefits; decision-making by formal vote of those in local communities. 3 Individual -[REDACTED], Other: Requests no more nuclear waste in Cumbria n/a 4 Communities Against Nuclear Expansion Other: Poses concerns about new nuclear build at Sizewell (C) until a solution is found for legacy WP1, WP2, wastes. Believes more consideration should be given to the short term and interim storage of WP4, WP6, all types of Radioactive waste. Believes Sizewell community residents should be compensated WP7, WP8 for the planned EDFE Dry Fuel Store (DFS) for Spent Fuel. Misunderstands why a DFS is being built at EDFE's Sizewell B's PWR station and doesnt appreciate the uniqueness of the circumstances that arose to its requirement. Thus is concerned that they would be needed at all new build sites and they would be 'sprung' on those communities. Improvements to the site selection process: geology should come first, then exclude national parks and AONB, suitable sites then engage in volunteerism.

  • ALLERDALE DISTRICT WARDS REVIEW 2016 an Initial Submission
    ALLERDALE DISTRICT WARDS REVIEW 2016 An initial submission on behalf of the Labour Group of Allerdale Councillors. A. Methodology for Area allocations The starting point for this submission to the review process is that the Allerdale District is made up of seven Areas, each centred on a town as service centre and its hinterland. These areas were first defined by the County Council as part of its initiation of the “Neighbourhood Forms” concept in the late 1980s and have evolved since into the pattern now used by Allerdale Council for engagement with members and localities, shown in this map: The map was originally based on school catchment areas. Following a review of “natural communities” by the Health service in 2000, it began to be used to define primary care boundaries. Under localism and devolution policy in the 2000s it was also used to define neighbourhood policing areas, community regeneration areas, childrens centre areas, parish council groupings, and planning policy areas, amongst others. Although some organisations, under budget pressures, have resiled from earlier commitments to use these Areas for organisation and service planning, they remain the most appropriate basis for any division of Allerdale into smaller areas. Accordingly it is suggested that these Areas should be the starting point for consideration of ward boundaries – following the pattern of the parliamentary boundary review which uses counties within the Region as its starting point. The first step is therefore to define the quota, making an assumption of 48 members as the size of the Council based a) on the actual electorate in 2016 (a quota of 1576 electors); and b) on the forecast electorate in 2022 as estimated by the Elections Officer at the Council (a quota of 1622 electors).
