Two apologies: 1) I posted this with the wrong date, 2) I’m late – been away and tried to do it in a hurry as soon as I returned.

Tunnel meeting with Secretary of State for Transport
Here’s a brief note from Brian Cable about today’s meeting between Ray Puddifoot and representatives of Ruislip, Ickenham and Harefield residents concerning Monday’s meeting between the Secretary of State for Transport, Patrick McLoughlin, Nick Hurd, Boris Johnson, Zac Goldsmith, Ray Puddifoot.
We expect a formal statement soon and will publish it here.
In a nutshell:
The meeting with the Secretary of State was a success and he went from being lukewarm about reconsidering a tunnel extension to acceptance that it would be worth looking at again and saying that he would task HS2 with carrying out a new cost and technical analysis, in concert with Transport For London and the London Borough of Hillingdon. He will be writing to confirm this.
Ray was full of praise for Nick, Zac and Boris in the way they presented the case on our behalf.
Ray was equally unequivocal in saying that this had only come about as a result of the pressures brought by us in the communities and our representatives in exhibiting passion, determination, and putting forward well-informed arguments in our petitions and communications.
LBH intends to engage PBA again as its consultants on the tunnel.
He also pointed out potential pitfalls and political difficulties. Basically, it is a step forward, but we still need to attend to the Lords’ petitioning process and the current studies on traffic and dumping still need to be pursued to the end.
I feel a little less discouraged than I did this morning!
In anticipation that there will be a statement very soon.
Regards, Brian

Chairman’s review of 2015-6
As part of the AGM, the Chairman reviews the Association’s activities during the preceding year. She also does a lot of other things like calling for votes on this and that and introducing the guest speakers. While much of this has to await the members’ approval next year, we thought it would be a good idea to see the body of her presentation here.

Hello, I hope you know your post code because these are the UB10 8 prefixed codes for all the new planning submissions this week: AA, AF, AG, BD, BP, DF, EG, JE, NB, QY, RA, RL, SA, SR, SZ, TH. (There’s a slight danger that two of them are repeats from an earlier update – my apologies if that’s the case.)
Your HS2 Compensation questions answered
Many Ickenham residents are confused and worried about HS2’s plans for compensation (Assuming we don’t get the tunnel). In January, it published some maps and explanations of the various types of compensations on offer. We’ve extracted the Ickenham-relevant parts and put them on a new HS2 Compensation maps page. This links to three downloadable maps in .pdf format which you can browse at leisure (and zoom into to see the detail).
While researching HS2 compensation in general, we found a link to good plain english explanations by property consultants Roger Hannah & Co – well worth a look.
