The purpose of this document is to set out clearly the decision-making process for determining Freeport locations. It was followed by officials and ministers according to the process and rationale which were published in the Freeport prospectus.
Eighteen Freeport bids were received by the noon deadline on 5 February.
In the Pass/Fail stage, all bids received were initially assessed on their answers to the Essential Information in Section 5.5 of the Freeports bidding prospectus.
Four bids failed to sufficiently answer each of these questions to the specifications set out in the Prospectus – with all failing on at least 4 counts.
