Remember this from @JenWilliams_FT story yesterday and her thread?
Well it looks as if the entry referred to has changed over time. Remember the company in question is owned by Corney and Musgrave …not by the Teeside Corporation as claimed.

2/3 "Tees Valley Mayor Ben Houchen, who is running the #Teesworks project, confirmed that a “bespoke clause” was inserted into their legal agreement, at the request of the two energy firms."
3/3 “BP and Equinor wanted assurances, given the noise they were hearing,” he (Houchen) told The Yorkshire Post. “We were able to provide those assurances and they signed the deal last week. Now they’re investing north of £1.5bn on this site. If anything, it exonerates us.”
