    If this turns out to be true, it's a shrewd move as VAT and tax was always going to be a problem when it comes to luring operators back into UK waters. And proper "regulation" requires close links between government and operators to get established.

    The revenue from the industry is important to the government. But so far, from what I've seen, they are going about it in a pretty fair and sensible way IMO. For politicians anyway
