Earlier this year my Department contacted all the interested parties who use the property concerned with a view to selling the area used to each of them. All of these groups responded and indicated their wish to purchase. However, a difficulty has arisen with one group in relation to the area involved. As a result of this dispute a number of the sales have been deferred. My Department is endeavouring to find a resolution to the dispute, without recourse to the Courts, in a way that addresses the long-term objectives of the various parties. Once this is achieved my Department will be in a position to continue with the disposal of the property.
