The Teesside 43 BSAC diving club has been based at the club house on the South Gare since 1957. We are tenants of PD Ports, who are successors to our original landlord. We are committed to local SCUBA diving and have a strong environmental ethos and concern for the ecology of the area and conservation of the natural habitats the South Gare provides to both shore based and marine species. We support any efforts to improve the national and global environmental preservation and improvement efforts. The NZTP has much to commend it but we are concerned not to see our interests adversely affected. We would like to have a symbiotic and harmonious relationship with NZTP. We have enjoyed unfettered access to the South Gare via the access road for the entire history of our club and we have always, and will continue to rely on our prescriptive rights of access which have never been challenged. We would like a reassurance that our legitimate interests will be respected and observed.
