The appointed developer, Kane Ltd, has put in for planning. That’s not been withdrawn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasnt the developer that miraculously won the bid after the other successful winner mysteriously got dropped got strong connections to the DfE?

His dad is Chair of Business Isle of Man agency but so what?

They won a new bid - they didn’t simply pick up the pieces of the previous separate one. So you dont think it’s odd that a company thinks it’s won a bid with IOMG, and then a month later someone whose dad has a contract with the IOMG wins the very same bid despite the fact the original bidder seems to think they had already won it? The actual ruling is here. Looks like the same bid to me despite what you said https://www.judgments.im/content/J2470.htm Deemsters conclusion which seems to be basically urging them to settle out of court. Probably more of our cash spent making this go away. ”48. I conclude by stating that, on the key issue of contention in this application, I am persuaded that the Applicants have a potential and arguable cause of action and that the Respondent is likely (perhaps with others) to be a party to subsequent proceedings. I am also persuaded that the remaining requirements of Rule 7.45 are satisfied and that in particular disclosure before proceedings have started is desirable in order both to dispose fairly of the anticipated proceedings and to assist the dispute to be resolved without proceedings, and to save costs. Subject to further submissions on the precise content and scope of the order, I am persuaded that an order for pre-action disclosure is appropriate in this case.” Edited January 17, 2019 by thesultanofsheight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitch Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 It was retendered according to the article. Was Mr B anything to do with DED at the time? This was 2016 wasn’t it? The paper says that Kane submitted planning in August 2018 so 2 years later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the IOM Newspapers News article (how well researched are they?) but I was reading the court summary which I linked too. See Eversheds letter to the DOI which is quite illuminating. The judges conclusion seems clear; likely out of court settlement to stop further costly litigation.
