My Department informed the applicant's representative on 20 January of 2011 that the application for a foreshore lease had been approved, and the Chief State Solicitor's Office was instructed to draft the requisite lease. However, issues relating to compliance with the consent have since arisen and these have been communicated to the applicant. Legal advice is now awaited on the matter before the final lease agreement can be settled.
