Walk away

In May 2005, Fast Ships Chairman, Mr Alf Salter found delays in signing the lease agreement for the proposed fast ferry at Ettalong, "incredibly frustrating," because "the company has been in a position to sign the document for the last six months".

Now, just a year later, we learn that Mr Salter has asked council to delay the signing of the deed of agreement and sub-lease for the proposed fast ferry at Ettalong.

I recall one councillor stating at that time that the fast ferry company should "put up or shut up".

I presume therefore that Council will simply walk away from this whole fiasco.
