The use of article 4(1) directions to protect locally designated assets is also a step forward. Just to recap Barker was a report to the treasury - not a white paper - and was like a wishlist for big business. The white paper will hopefully lead to the stated improvements to the system via new legislation (and YES guidance). Troll, not sure which white paper you've been reading! Maybe you should take a bit longer before you slate it though. Would be keen to hear what people think of the Marine bit - as this ain't really my bag. Is it any good?
