In Rotterdam, for example, if three terminals are operating within the one estuary, they are essentially three standalone ports operating in the same geographical area. Obviously within each of those this issue also exists because they will be run by a single management company. Are they run along similar lines to how Irish ports operate, with the neighbouring ports, as with Dún Laoghaire and Dublin Port, for instance, but independent within the one estuary?
