Saving the Naze - Local News Quotes:
David Gager [Chairman of the NPS] - "We will do everything we can to push this forward but we need the council to be positive."

John Steer [Geologist & Historian - Frinton and Walton Heritage Trust] - "The current philosophy is to abandon various sections of the coast to the sea, particularly where there is no supposed financial value - but the sea comes in and sooner or later you will come up against something which is valuable."

Ivan Henderson [former Harwich MP] - "It is always going to be for the Government to fund sea defence issues. Central Government have their responsibility. Local government cannot take that on."

MIck Page [Walton Councillor] - "We will not give up."

David Lines [with Tendring District Council] - "Are we going to be just another in a long line of bodies discussing the Naze, coming up with ideas, but getting nothing done?"
