Hello Tony,

Thank you for your request concerning information on the Johnsonville land exchange presentation from August 2019.

I have to advise you that the Council decision is that your request for information is refused at this time, under LGOIMA section 7(2)(i) to enable the Council to carry out, without prejudice or disadvantage, negotiations. The negotiations around the Johnsonville Land Exchange are still in progress.

However, what I can offer is the Council officer looking after the negotiations is open to being contacted to see if he is able to answer any specific questions you might have. If you think this might assist your inquiry, please let me know.

If you do not agree with the decision to refuse your request, you can apply to the Office of the Ombudsman to have them investigate the Council's decision.

Kind regards
