A “Full Business Case” for the new East Midlands Freeport has been handed into Government.
The document builds on the “Outline Business Case” approved in February and, if approved, will unlock the complete range of benefits offered by the low tax area.
The Government has confirmed that eligible companies investing in its three zones – around East Midlands Airport, the Ratcliffe on Soar power station redevelopment site and the East Midlands Intermodal Park near the Derbyshire Toyota plant – can already access certain benefits.
