    This precisely the reason we visited our counterparts in Calais a couple of weeks ago.

    The new logistics park has a railhead planned to accompany it.

    There are plans for a links style golf course at Sangatte and a theme park outside Calais.

    This complements their Calais 2015 Port development.

    We are following this up with continued dialogue with DfT pointing out they have not taken these developments into account when dealing with the future of the Port-part of our submissions in the original Port debate.

    At every turn in the last 20 years original growth figures have been exceeded & underestimated.

    Dover always plays catch up when capacity begins to become stretched.

    Other than the £76m capital investment now on the table, I would hope we see the new funding regime indicated in the Minister's decision letter delivered without another round of change proposals that require the consultation merry go round to start again.
