University the stumbling block

Sir, – In the article “Social media backing sought for bid to build university wind farm” (Courier, March 5) the anonymous Amnesty International spokesman said “our aim now is to make Kenly a nationwide issue and steer public opinion towards this worthy cause in order to force a reaction from the MoD”.

The MoD “Radar Mitigation Scheme” means a scheme proposed by the university to address the impact of the wind farm development on the operation of the Primary Surveillance Radar and air traffic control traffic radar at RAF Leuchars.

It is to ensure adequate measures are in place to mitigate radar interference in the interests of protecting air safety.

The MoD confirm they are ready to engage in any future proposals, but the university have not come up with any in the last five years.

It is the university that is standing in the way of the development.
