RARE OPPORTUNITY TO CALL FOR LAWFUL REGULATION OF WIRELESS RADIATION -ACT NOW- SEND There are 2 ACTIONS.
ACTION 1 respond to the consultation yourself.
ACTION 2 Ask your ward councillor and planning board members to respond to the consultation by sending them the submission and this email. (as above with this sentence changed. I thinks this will clarify) 'Whilst the consultation is not proposing to change NPPF Section 10 which contains policy 120/121 about ICNIRP certification and regulation of exposures to wireless radiation, the attached Submission 'NPPF consultation response 08-09.pdf' explains why changes to these policies are urgently needed.'
'‘Policy paragraphs 121/122 need reforming to clarify procedures so that the ICNIRP guideline is applied and valid certificates are always processed with applications'.

TEMPLATE LETTER
Dear Cllr/xxx,
I am writing to you about the opportunity to respond to the open consultation regarding changes to the National Planning Policy Framework.
Whilst the consultation does not propose changes to Section 10 re: Telecommunications specifically, the attached Submission explains why changes to Policy paragraphs 121 and 122 are urgently needed.
If time is short please refer to the Index, and Submission Sections 1) Introduction, 8) Summary & 10) iii) NOTES legal background.
The government has 'adopted' the ICNIRP exposure guidelines, but the application of these guidelines is not being fulfilled at the planning stage because of misleading wording in policy paragraph 121 and 122. Telecoms self-certification is failing, so for this reason alone, policy wording needs changing.
I appeal to you to respond to the consultation to protect those who are being condemned to living inside radiation exclusion zones.
Contradictions in how different Councils are processing applications are highlighted in Section 5) ii) INCONSISTENCIES. These inconsistencies need to be resolved to safeguard Local Councils from judicial reviews.
Regarding the Public Sector Equality Duty, which is a focus of the consultation, it is imperative that those with Electrohypersensitvity (EHS) are protected by their vulnerabilities being accommodated within Policy.
If time is short, as a minimum,
‘Policy paragraphs 121/122 need reforming to clarify procedures so that the ICNIRP guideline is applied and valid certificates are always processed with applications'.

If you have time to absorb the full picture about failing regulation and you agree with the full range of issues presented in the Submission, please endorse the Submission in full.
Thank you,
