Timescales for the development of market-led proposals are determined by the pace at which promoters develop them as they are market-led. We are continuing discussions with promoters of proposals received in response to last year’s Call for Ideas which we identified had the potential to be financially credible without government support. Due to commercial confidentiality we are not in a position to disclose details of these proposals at this time.
