Yes I'm well aware of that Jon, given that my main qualification is in Economics. It doesn't work for Heritage. Your belief that economists can bring something useful to the issue of heritage value is flattering but mistaken..../


Economics is one way to quantify value Nigel. If you don't believe that any arguments exist which can be transferred to an equivalent financial estimate of value (to allow the route options to be reconsidered), then it's unlikely that you would want to research ways in which economic arguments could be used.

There may be other ways to quantify value: If there are ways that you know of, then perhaps you might consider bringing up those arguments in the consultation?

What background do you have in economics?
