I object to this proposal

1 - an undersea connection direct from Wylfa to the Wirral or Deeside would cost £1 per domestic user for 40 years and £2.50 a business user for 40 years. This option, revealed during the public consultation process, has never been seriously considered by NGET plc (eg they NEVER consulted on the Wirral or Deeside)

2 - Pylons will be detrimental to views of unspoilt countryside, particularly views from within, and views of, the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.


3 - Pylons will be detrimental to the tourism industry through spoilt, and “industrialised”, countryside. Pylons will be detrimental to farming due to permanent land loss and restricted practices.

4 - Pylons will be detrimental to house value, which NGET have not considered.

5 - More pylons will be detrimental to Ofgem achieving their principal objective “… to protect the interests of existing and future electricity … consumers”.

6 - There is a huge amount of scientific research into the health effects of pylons, and there are quite different views, a bit like the research into tobacco in the 1950’s and 60’s. There are serious concerns, and conflicting views, about the health impacts on people and farm animals. Better to be safe than sorry and not use pylons.

7 - Unfair and undemocratic – Anglesey and Wales are self-sufficient in energy. The pylons will serve mainly to export power to the south east of England, against the wishes of Anglesey people and all levels of democratic representation.

8 - NGET and Horizon have not followed the guidance in The Planning Act 2008, and at no point has the genuine cumulative impact been assessed or consulted on.
