Reduced contingency fuel procedure

Here is a quick question if anyone can help.

When operating in Europe using the RCPF procedure, say, for example you're heading up from somewhere warm and your normal destination is Birmingham and destination2 (for RCFP purposes) is Gatwick.

If you require an alternate for your flight to Birmingham, do you also require an alternate for Gatwick? In other words, can you treat destination 2 as a diversion (to land with no less than final reserve fuel etc.) or do you need to treat it as a destination and carry alternate fuel?

Any reference to a document would be helpful....
