Oops, came late to this topic, but in the usual way of things BAJR contributors have already covered all the main points. I helped to run the two-year EH ALSF pilot scheme in 2002-4; it did indeed fund some marvellous projects, then and in the years since. It's a huge pity that this grant scheme is now at an end. I can confirm the answer to Kevin's question - PPG 16 cases were not eligible for ALSF funding, and mitigation clearly remained the responsibility of the quarry companies.
