An industry group advising on the development of the Port of Dover has appointed its first independent chairman and vice chairman to change how the port consults with business partners.

Ryeland is managing director of Dover Cargo Terminal operator George Hammond PLC, while Hardy is general manager of MOTIS Freight Services Agency.
The group has been created to offer a platform for open engagement with the port.
