There is flexibility in both models. There is flexibility within the bid system in that one can design one's own bid with the local community. It boils down to what would be covered; it involves a very detailed contract with the local authority, the city council. There is no grey area. I am sure the delegates examined the contract that was signed by the city centre businesses and the city council. It is so detailed that it refers to how often road signs should be washed. One would not get into this level of detail regarding the docklands. A different model for investment within the community might be involved.
