Dear Sue Wong
Freedom of Information Request 3128522 Thank you for your recent request. Your request was actioned under the Freedom of
Information Act 2000 in which you requested the following information –
1. Liverpool City Council validated planning for the Great George Street Project on
18/10/2018.
Planning Application - 18F/2727
This first step means our application is legally valid and complies with legislation
according to the website: GGSD Ltd
2. Will Liverpool City Council then state in writing that Great George Street
Developments Ltd, now have the legal right to build and sell these apartments as off
plan to the public and ask for loans from the public?
3. Has GGSD Ltd also now paid all past and due bills (106) fees to the Liverpool City
Council?
4. Can the Liverpool City Council, explain why GGSD has an out of service telephone
number on the web-site and no real office address, how can anyone other than the
Liverpool City Council contact them?
5. Angel Lewis last week had sent out a reply to a FOI, stating: 'Due to the
investigation on-going by the SFO into GGSD Ltd" no comments can be made, can the
LCC please state this as fact?
6. Neal Hunter CEO/ GGSD Ltd, now on the other hand has told a number of investors
that no investigation is on-going with the SFO- NCA or any law enforcement officers at
all.
The investor was then told GGSD / Liverpool / Chinatown are on site with a work force
as from Monday? This came from an overseas investor not us.
