Question Ceiling vs. Vertical Visibility

Airport EXXX has an ILS (DH 200') and an VOR (MDH 450') available. The TAF for our arrival gives us VRB01KT 7000 BR VV003=

Can we use EXXX as an alternate during planning?

I'd say definitely no, but some people in my company say we can. It doesn't make any sense to me but I can't find any reference in EU-OPS. OPS 1.297 doesn't mention VV it only states "the ceiling at or above MDH".

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers!
