Further to Riveroak getting the cold shoulder from TDC for the 2nd time they have pushed the boat out even further this time.
They are applying to the Government for a Development Consent Order (DSO) which is awarded for projects that meet the requirement of
national significance.
"Manston was closed in May last year after wracking up losses of more than £100 million during 16 years of private ownership."
"A
Development Consent Order (DCO) is the means of obtaining permission
for developments categorised as Nationally Significant Infrastructure
Projects (NSIP). This includes energy, transport, water and waste
projects. Development Consent Orders are required
for designated Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects rather
than other consents such as planning permission, listed building consent
and compulsory purchase orders. "
This is from a Government that has rejected Manston twice under the Davies Committee.
Now the Pro supporters are happy again, so happy in fact they have started to threaten once again this time on Kentonline link here
Its a strange world we live in where it is a badge of pride to be banned from commentating on a local newspaper but par for the course for Pro Manston supporters. Oh and Keith "Blue Sky thinking" isn't Paul Abela so you can't commit actual bodily harm as you have no idea who it is. And further Churchy boy you are free to comment on here if you have it in you. Unlike "Manston Load Hailer" where you say one thing and do something different in reality.
BTW Manston supporters can you read and have you read this (link here). This is what it says before you apply.
Pre-application
The process begins when the Planning Inspectorate is informed by a
developer that they intend to submit an application to us in the future.
Before submitting an application,
the developer is required to carry
out extensive consultation on their proposals. The length of time taken
to prepare and consult on the project will vary depending upon its scale
and complexity. Responding to the developer’s pre-application
consultation is the best time to influence a project, whether you agree
with it, disagree with it or believe it could be improved.
