yeah, and unfortunately we are all going to fund West Hams stadium - of course, it isnt a 100% theirs yet

Ironic isn't it that we get berated for bidding for it yet the spam fans refuse to accept the fact that the public monies spent on it will never be recouped and that even more public money is having to be lent to spam in order for them to develop it.

Your link didn't seem to work. Hopefully this will

Is the RGF held by the Mayor? Wasn't he supposed to make N17 a special development area in order to improve the situation?

Cheers ddd eputy.

The Regional Growth Fund (RGF) is a £1.4bn fund operating across England from 2011 to 2014. It supports projects and programmes that lever private sector investment creating economic growth and sustainable employment. It aims particularly to help those areas and communities currently dependent on the public sector to make the transition to sustainable private sector-led growth and prosperity.

Nothing to do with the Mayor.

We'll just take the £0.4bn off them to round down their funding pot nicely then

I fully expect the NDP to drag on and on.

Lets hope the whole process can be speeded up a bit, I am sick of waiting for a new stadium.

Does anyone else think that this was the plan all along? 1. We try ndp ourselves but due to costs became unrealistic. 2. We explore the os and bid. 3. We upset lammey et al with our threat to leave who. 4. We seek jr against decision to give os to west ham, on of the grounds based upon the £40 mil "soft loan" from newham newham

Blooming iPhone rubbish....

We then get a lot of publicity concerning us leaving n17 and the serious detriment caused to the area. We then suggest an application for rdf to assist with costs at ndp? Or am I too cynical?

Just reading up on the RGF. Yesterday was the deadline for the SECOND round of RGF bids. The first round has already set aside £4.5bn for successful bids. Why didn't we bid in the first round last year if it was available?

ddd - wouldn't be surprised if there was a bit of politics involved there. No first round RGF money went into London at all. The rest of the country thinks London gets too much as it is. Haringey also applied for Enterprise Zone status last time round, but did't get it, and in fact only one was granted (out of 20 odd I think) in London.

This time around, Boris has declared a Mayoral Development Corp for N17, Haringey have applied again for an Enterprise Zone, and we are making our RGF bid. We have to be in with a good shout.
