Request

I heard that there was an investigation into cases of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) at Tollerton park that is adjacent to the airfield. A previous FoI request was made in 2008 apparently but the results cannot be located by RBC.

I need to know what investigations were undertaken and what conclusions were drawn. I'm particularly interested to know if any investigation into lead pollution was done. The proximity of the park to an airfield where the planes use leaded fuel, and have done for decades, would indicate that that would have been done.

Please see the link to our website Tollerton Airfield planning applications - Rushcliffe Borough Council

There is a link on that page to the full report which is as much information that we currently hold.
