The post you are reporting:
Oh don't worry about that, Howard.
I've read the reply from the Department for Transport, that came to me the other day.
I did post an extract of it on this thread, between averted comas, on post somewhere or another on a previous page.
Precisely in reference to "local regeneration".
And I also mentioned on this thread another home truth that the DfT wrote to me: that local regeneration in Dover depends on the District Council and, perhaps, the County Council.
Fact is, no-one on this thread even bothered taking up the point.
Fact is, I have been writing this all along on the Forum, and it was always part of my representations to the DfT, that local regeneration depends on the Councils.
Fact is, I have been proven right, where-as DPPT have just gone on sounding off their usual stuff about meetings with the Government and every minister and civil servant in Whitehall.
But don't worry, Howard, the letter from the DfT states a few other things too, and I have not posted them on here!
Because from day 1 when DPPT declared themselves "a port", which was somewhere in August 2010 long after the Public Consultation had started, they have taken apart everything I ever wrote, and not only, but have actively lobbied at every conceivable place in London, with ministers and civil servants, to make any proposal for local regeneration in Dover and District impossible.
What they proposed, was nothing more and nothing less than what DHB proposed.
Howard: THERE WILL BE NO COMMUNITY REGENERATION IN DOVER OR DISTRICT
IT'S OVER!
The DfT have written it black on white!
