The Southwest Regional Development Agency own the development site of Osprey Quay on Portland, which is the site for the Olympic sailing events in 2012.
A local boatbuilding business is being evicted by the SWRDA to clear land for an Olympic car park, and a post 2012 property development site. The business itself is one of the most innovative boatbuilding companies in the world, and relies on it's waterside location at Portland harbour for research and development purposes.
Surely it's the responsibility of SWRDA to look after the interests of small businesses? This is a regeneration area that is supposed to be providing opportunities for business. Why haven't they provided alternative premisies for the displaced company?
