12.00.00pm BST (GMT +0100) Tue 1st Jul 2008

Paul Holmes MP and local Liberal Democrat Councillors supported RAAW (Residents Against Asbestos Waste) at Old Whittington Gala last Saturday.

Paul Holmes said, "The residents action group have done an amazing job of organising this campaign against the proposed Asbestos transfer station and I was delighted to support them"

"The Gala organisers, too, are to be congratulated on their usual annual success. The Gala was enjoyed by all"

"The County Council have still not announced when their planning committee will meet to consider this application - so it is not too late to send in your objections" commented County Cllr David Stone.

Borough Cllrs Jane Collins and Alan Craw said " The two recent fires on the industrial estate add further concern about the wisdom of putting such a dangerous material as Asbestos in the heart of a densely populated urban area".

If you would like to add your objections to the planed Waste transfer station, please write to: FAO: Kevin Finn, Planning Dept, Derbyshire County Council, Matlock, Derbyshire, DE4 3AG.
