THE information about Oxbow’s sulphur processing plant set to be built at the docks, that will pollute Southampton Water and give off a rotten egg smell to greet the cruise ships and become the bane of Southampton’s port, is a serious issue.

At the moment the alarming comments on the Echo website with links are confined to replies under the current letter about the departure of Tesco.

How will this affect the Marine Biology Centre, boat show and other festivals, cruise ships, businesses and residents?

If anyone has any information please let it be known quickly so that we can ask candidates in the election what they propose to do about it.

MRS CLARKE, Southampton.
