Dear Liverpool City Council,

Dear Liverpool City Council,

Just been told by a member of the council that (FISP) has been binned and no action will be taken.

1/ Will Cllr Jane Corbett and the Liverpool echo reporter Alistair Houghton explain why no members of the investors group have been told and have been kept in the dark?

2/ Has this (FISP) report been closed in the event that it may link a member of the council, Mr Nick Kavanagh, to some of the developments and failed sites?

3/ What are the total number of his (Kavanagh’s) past dealing with all developers and the acting agents or and solicitors as from 2011 to 2019 has the planning office kept all his records of meeting with all the developers and his computer files?

4/ Please supply the total cost from August 2018 and the hours spent on this along with the names of all the Echo reporters who sat in on these meeting.

Footnotes below:

There were eight meetings of the Fractional Investment & Scrutiny Panel (FISP), the first on 30 August 2018 and the last on 19 May 2019.

Minutes are only available on your website for that first meeting. Why are the minutes of the other seven meetings not also available online for the public to see?

It is now nearly nine months since the last meeting of the FISP yet there is still no sign of the final report. Why is it taking the Chair, Cllr Jane Corbett, longer to actually write the report than it took to arrange and hold the eight Panel meetings?

When exactly is the final report of this Panel likely to be produced?

Given the inordinate delay in producing the final report, is Cllr Corbett actually qualified and competent to do so or should the defrauded investors be asking the Government for a totally independent inquiry into what has been happening in Liverpool that has resulted in so many stalled and unfinished developments?

Yours faithfully,

Sue Wong HKC/Chinatown Liverpool
