I wish to register my opposition against the proposal for the development of Sizewell C for the following reasons Whilst I agree that nuclear power would reduce the use of fossil fuels, I believe that the increase in green technologies would provide much of the energy needs required in the future without the inherent dangers of nuclear power. In addition, the development would cause great damage to areas of great beauty and a number of SSRIs in the area. The proposed increase in jobs is unlikely to benefit the population of the local area as many are very highly specialised and could not be sourced locally. The local transport infrastructure would not cope with the dramatically increase in traffic flow of heavy machinery required. The current coronavirus crisis does not allow full discussion and would not allow a considered decision to be made. Yours faithfully, Rajesh Patel [Redacted]
