Dear Lord Rooker,
Re: New guide for planners and mobile phone operators, and the code of
best practice encouraging greater consultation between mobile phone operators,
local authorities and local communities.
As a member of a community and writing on behalf of 158 concerned residents
in Hartley Wintney, Hook, Hants, I am greatly disappointed with the New
guide for planners and mobile phone operators, and the code of best practice.
Perhaps you may answer some questions I/ we have:
a) Who specifically will be accountable should current ICNIRP guidance
on limiting emissions, not be adequate in terms of protecting human health?
Enclosed a copy of the Freiburger Appeal, this appeal begs the question
why not more precautionary guidance is considered with these kind of health
effects being registered by the medical profession occurring within current
safety guidelines?
b) How does this new guidance relate to existing telecommunications developments,
erected with out consultation and or notification? Is there a means to
update, bring in line with current guidance, existing environmentally
obtrusive/ ugly developments in residential areas? Is there guidance to
revoke/ resite existing unsuitable, badly sited telecommunications developments,
that are contentious with the community, wardmember and MP? Developments
that now would be considered red when applying the so-called "traffic
light system"? If not, why not?
c) Why is no consideration given in this guidance to public perception
of fear, being a material planning consideration, particularly as the
new guidance positively accommodates hiding antennas? Particularly as
there is now no "need" to even notify the LPA of certain alterations
etc on existing structures, thus avoiding any public consultation and
or notification?
Thanking you for your time and looking forward to your reply,
Yours faithfully,
Marre Dafforn

F.Y.I,
Pasted below some more Cost pages as not every-one seems to be able to
douwnload these. I am concerned,is this a way that existing telecomm development
antennas could increase in power and or EIRP ? I do not know enough to
understand this completely, but this seems to me one of the ways that
operators can increase existing antennas without ever notifying any-one?
I have included Alasdair as I hope he may be able to comment on this patch.
Kind regards,
Marre
