I would like to know what Vistry plans to do to ensure the health and safety of the public, residents and future home owners at the Nottingham Tollerton Airfield site given that Rushcliffe Borough Council have known since 2008 that radioactive waste contamination due to Radium 226 is above national threshold guidelines for causing harm to human health. The Public Health England report of 2021 states clearly land should not be allocated for housing as a change of use where radioactive levels exceed 0.3 mSieverts/ year which is what the RBC found in 2008. I am astounded that RBC did not realise that they had applied the wrong threshold and have not followed the governmental guidance but Vistry also know of this problem and are still pushing ahead with planning applications to build on this contaminated land. I am leaving this review with the sole intention to seek clarity from the Vistry homes board as to what their intentions are given that PHE states this land is too heavily contaminated to be granted planning permission. I know that all the indications point to Vistry seeking a way forward no matter what but seriously ignoring the international regulations on ionising radiation and PHE legal thresholds for radioactive contamination. Even for Vistry this sets a new low bar. Your sincerely Alan
