5. Negative HIV 1/2 antibody/antigen test at screening
6. If heterosexually active female, using an effective method of contraception with partner (combined oral contraceptive pill; injectable or implanted contraceptive; use of condoms incorporating spermicide if using these; physiological or anatomical sterility) from 14 days prior to the first vaccination until 6 months after the last, and willing to undergo urine pregnancy tests prior to each vaccination and blood pregnancy test at screening and final follow up.
7. Agree, to abstain from medications or other agents that are applied via the nasal route from 24 hours prior to each nasal vaccine dosing through to the safety assessment 1week later
8. Agree to abstain from donating blood during their participation in the trial
9. Registered with GP and medical history available for 12 months before dosing
10. Satisfactory response received from General Practitioner relating to medical history before randomization.

Exclusion Criteria
