  At last, we can all see that everything (except the rather strange conclusions you draw from the above info) is exactly as stated by me on numerous occasions and on the other threads, nothing that is not already in the public domain. DPPT continues to bring its original offer up to date with all the latest numbers, stakeholder and financial support for presentation without the encumbrance of government consideration of the last DHB proposals which have now been dealt with.
  
  DPPT has had and will continue to have meetings with ministers and civil servants as previously stated by me. The DHB has been instructed to consider all the available options for the long term future of the port, big hint for them to do the right thing voluntarily, and if they don't, the Minister has the powers required to ensure that they do in the end do the right thing.
  
  The DPPT offer was never rejected by Government, there is a difference between not being able to consider at that time due to prevailing circumstances and a rejection. The fact that the DPPT offer was not rejected and continued to have a major influence, even though it could not immediately be accepted, on the entire process around the DHB consultation is evidenced by the change in the criteria and in the decision letter itself. Now also in the fact that the conversation continues with Government to deliver the stated Government aims of achieving significant and enduring community influence over the future of the port and benefit from on going operations.
