Stallard12 Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 From memory, I think it's a region designated by the government for tax perks stc. It's only 5:30pm, so I'm rarin' to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 11.30 pm here Stallard12... and I'm not  If it's just an other government perks/enticement 'twaddle pack' with a buzz word to tick boxes and to make it appear that they care then forget it. We've heard it all before and it's makes no difference in reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 They will just relocate jobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 ... and if they relocate jobs I guess they hope that people will start to reocate too thus leaving no jobs in the places where there were jobs and only those who can't relocate will be left in a even bigger black hole that they were in before and areas will become dead. Â What will they do then...nuke them/it or something ? Â Did that make sense? I guess not as nothing makes sense anymore anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Daresbury has been declared an Enterprise Zone apparently.... Maybe they could just hold a biggher, longer music festival, maybe all year round that would create employment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverlady54 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 As I understand it, the carrot is that firms moving into the zone pay lower business rates etc, and they hope that they will employ locally. However, as they have also just approved the new Mersey bridge, I think firms may think twice once they experience the 24 hour gridlock that is going to become the norm, especially if the bridges on the ship canal are going to be opened up to 6 times a day for the Port of Warrington! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
