I understand that the Chief State Solicitor's Office has raised a number of queries regarding the draft contracts in this case with the vendor's solicitors and is awaiting a reply. No payment can be made until signed contracts are in place.

I understand that the Chief State Solicitor's Office wrote to the vendor's solicitor on 16 May 2008 seeking requisitions on title so that the sale can be closed. The purchase will go through when these issues have been resolved.
