Fran – I have just returned from leave so apologies for late response. The current position is that Lockner Estate is not in this years programme and as such there is no plan to progress,

 It will not be in any future programme until we have consulted with both the TRA and Residents again and have a clear mandate from Residents to proceed,. however we will require a Planning Approval if we are to at proceed at some point. It is most unfortunate that we have taken so long to progress with the outline Planning Approval but this is a formality and does not imply that we are to carry matters any further, without all of the proper consultation occurring and indeed subject to financial availability which is certainly not the case at this time.

Although interesting, this is not the solution we are looking for. There's nothing to say this issue wont raise its ugly head again next year (as it has done already). So, we're going to stick to Plan A and keep going until we get in writing, from the top people that the plans have been indefinitely shelved.
