Dear Sir,

GORLESTON COASTAL PROTECTION SCHEME

Thank you for your letter of 7th January 2005 regarding the above. Please accept my apologies for the exhibition boards being unavailable at the Town Hall, this was in part due to the space available for such a large display.

I have asked the Consultants to produce the display material in an A4 or A3 size and will arrange for a copy of this to be sent to you.

With reference to your questions:

1. Halcrow are employed as the Council's consultants and work under instruction from Great Yarmouth Borough Council through whom all inquiries should be directed.
2. We have requested and would welcome, any technical questions about this or any other scheme for Gorleston prior to the next meeting.
3. A meeting has been set up between the Council's technical officers, Halcrow and the "technical representatives" from those who attended the public meeting in September 2004 at Gorleston Library. Following the outcome of the meeting and any subsequent meetings, a further public meeting will be arranged and will be publicized. I am hopeful that this will include the Council's website.

Should you have any further queries relating to the above please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely,
