Truly frightening! I live in Wressle. Equally vulnerable to corrupt and disgraceful behaviour by the few.
I am writing to Yorkshire Water on behalf of the residents. You may know this is all about compliance with the EU 1999 Landfill directive, driven though by the Conservative Party in my Parliament. May I suggest you vote UKIP on June 4 and tell your local MP why.
Yours sincerely

"Dear XXXXXXX
Thank you for your recent email.
As a matter of protocol I have forwarded this to Richard Corbett MEP who is a colleague of mine. Following the European elections in 2004, the two Labour MEPs have agreed an informal geographical division as a first point of call for constituents. This means that Richard Corbett has responsibility for all local authority districts north of the M62 and Humber estuary and I have responsibility for everything south of the M62 and Humber estuary. This split within the region will assist constituents to maintain the best possible contact with their MEPs.
I am sure Richard will respond shortly. For your information his address is 2 Blenheim Terrace, Leeds, LS2 9JG and his email address is richard@richardcorbett.org.uk.
I trust this will meet with your approval.
Yours sincerely

"Dear XXXXXXX,
Thank you for bringing this application to Diana's attention.
You do not mention if you have contacted your local councillors about the plans, also it is not clear which body is determining this application; Selby District council or North Yorkshire County Council. I have searched on the public registers of planning applications for both councils using the reference you provided and have not found anything.
Diana, as a Member of the European Parliament, has no input into determining local planning matters. There is no forum in which she could intervene on your behalf. Really you need to make you local councillors/candidates aware of your objections. The relevant planning authority has a duty to make the plans available to you.
I apologise if you find this response disappointing.

Dear xxxxxx
Thank you very much for contacting Edward McMillan-Scott MEP concerning Yorkshire Water's proposals for a sewage treatment plant in your village of Hemingbrough.
It is certainly alarming that, as a resident of the village, you did not receive any correspondence informing you of the proposals and giving you the opportunity to raise objections. There is currently an injunction against Yorkshire Water's plans and a meeting has been organised to take place next Monday at Hemingbrough Primary School from 17:30-19:30. I would strongly suggest that you and your wife attend this meeting to make your opinions heard.
Furthermore, it is this office's understanding that due to the fact that many people did not receive letters informing them of the planning application you may still submit a letter of objection. I am unsure of the closing date for letters so it is best to enter yours as soon as possible. To keep updated on this issue you may want to visit the following website: http://hemingbroughactiongroup.blogspot.com/
Edward will be keeping an eye on the progression of this case. However, as a Member of the European Parliament he is unable to take much action as this is a national issue. May I therefore advise you to contact your local MP, John Grogan (Labour), who may be able to represent you further.
Many thanks once again for contacting this office.
Kind regards,
Helen Willetts

From today`s visit from Yorkshire Water Dafydd Williams said that the sewerage plant would only be serving Hemingbrough and not Cliffe and Duffield because it would be too expensive, has anyone been told the same and where did the information come from?
ReplyDeleteDafydd said it was to expensive to put the sit any where else, Do you think they have looked at other positions?
He said the same to several people although the Parish Council stated that it was also to serve Cliffe and Duffield at the meeting of Thursday last week.
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean that if they build this they will want windmills to run it as well?
