Howard, DHB have not been asked to make a new privatisation bid.
Port privatisation is off the table, that's what the DfT have stated.
They are looking for alternatives.
DHB can offer alternative ideas for future finance of Port maintenance and expansion, but they cannot offer another privatisation bid again.
Unless stated otherwise, all other alternatives from relevant representations are on the table.
As stated previously, I've nought against DPPT campaigning for their proposals, as I campaign for mine, only hopefully MP Charlie doesn't claim in Parliament to be representing all the Dover Community with his DPPT offer.
As long as it remains fair, we can campaign for our own proposals, but the DHB privatisation bid is off the table once and for all. It has been rejected!
Yes I too received a letter from DfT, so we're all in this together, right!
