  Alex - T2 is specificly, explicitly excluded from any and all undertakings by any purchaser of the port under the DHB plan. It forms no part of the sales process. Read the DHB documentation properly. DHB may have given it as the reason, but they specifically excluded it from the process and from all undertakings by any buyer.
  
  The amount per annum allocated to the DPPT regeneration vehicle after 5 years will rise in line with revenue and profitability at the port...if you can tell me what will happen in the global economy in 10 years time, I'll be happy to calculate and detail the allocation.
  
  DPPT constitution is plain and clear on where monies will and can be spent. Everyone has access to that constitution and so there are no secrets. Read the DPPT constution.
  
  I am well aware of the KCC proposal. have been for quite a long time, certainly before it appeared in the papers or on the news. KCC actually propose that this toll will be for foreign lorries and vehicles who do not pay UK Road Tax and that any such funds raised will be ring fenced for use on the road network only. Similar tolls have been applied at other ports on freight traffic in other parts of the country and were successfully challenged in the courts by the freight industry. KCC will have a fight on their hands to be successful and they have a chance at success purely because the toll will be levied in lieu of road tax for foreign vehicles who currently do not pay a penny to use UK roads and ringfenced to be used for road maintenance and improvement only.
  
  With every post Alex, you demonstrate your poor grasp of the brief. As usual you have proved your own case to yourself alone. Enjoy.
