Paul, I've been trying to understand the options that have been mentioned, to sum up and estimate, to consider, which is the declared object of this thread.
Thus far I have come to the conclusion that one main initial intention concerning a trasformation of Dover Port's status, which I personally have been advocating since early 2009 - although not on the Foruum - was that Dover as Town and community receives a benefit from constant incoming revenues based on port traffic.
As is well known on the Forum, I believe these should go to the Councils and the State Treasury. The Councils' share would fund projects locally and reduce - or anul - the need of gov. grants to fund the local budget, which would further help the State Treasury too.
But the privatisation and bonds proposals both seem to miss the mark.
Still, although I do not want to harp on the same arguments continuously, it is good that people here get an idea of what is being proposed by way of 1) DHB and 2) the MP, and by considering the various proposals it might be possible to iron out any errors of strategy before, and not after, all is done!
