Last chance to fight radioactive proposal

CHAIRMAN of the village meeting, Malcolm Winder, has alerted us to an urgent meeting concerning the dumping of radioactive waste in King's Cliffe.
The Development Control Committee of Northamptonshire County Council are meeting at 10am on Tuesday March 16th. Unfortunately they have a reccommendation from the Planning Officers to go ahead with the radioactive waste disposal just 2.5 miles from Apethorpe.
Malcolm has made an appointment to address the DCC on behalf of Apethorpe before they make the final decision, though Malcolm believes it is a forlorn hope that any changes can be made against the Government's will for this proposal to proceed.
If you have any views or comments which you would like Malcolm to make to the council please let him have them prior to Tuesday. Malcolm can be emailled at: mrwinder@btinternet.com or call him on: 470472.
