YOUR article about the new Tate Gallery at St Ives ('Modernism has melted at the edges', 6 June) fails to point out that the Government gives with one hand but takes away with the other. The nearby cost-cutting, ill-considered Gwithian sewage outfall scheme, meant to improve coastal pollution at Penzance, will shortly begin discharging and will permanently ruin the beautiful beach at Porthmeor, and probably sacrifice a lot of the wild and unpopulated Atlantic coastline.
