I don’t think there is appetite to provide anyone with a blank cheque to reopen DSA? I also don’t believe that the Council have any intention to but it and run it. There is very little to go off in the public domain apart from the weekly announcements by Ros Jones. It is not clear whether Peel and interested private sector investors are still discussing this, as that is all subject to NDA. The fact that this wasn’t mentioned in the most recent update by Ros Jones makes me think that talks have not advanced. This is just a preemptive measure to help their cause in a CPO.
