now DD,

here is a question for you.

will the gb sell off hx without getting planning permission?

I say that is their plan.

in other words they have to get the bank debt down in a hurry.

this not your fault or mine, it is all the fault of present and past gb and those who supported them.

ps. redmills pulled their sponsorship because zero consultation on the shifting of the laurels from oct to april, and not as you suggest "political".

Surly not a quick sale of any property is bad as you will never get the true value for it, but hopefully it does not come to that

"There is a particular scarcity of large land banks being released for sale. Demand for sites is being primarily fuelled by the imbalance between supply and demand in the Dublin housing market and signs of rental growth in the Dublin office sector," said Marie Hunt, head of research at CBRE who compiled the study.

The report added that annual house price inflation is now at double-digit levels for the first time since 2007 while the capital's office rents are on course to close the year on double digits and to hit 14pc in 2014.

"Against this backdrop, demand for sites with planning permission has heated up significantly," said Ms Hunt.

Among the big deals to take place so far this year was the recent purchase by the HSE of 13 acres at Davitt Road in Dublin for more than 8m, the acquisition of a 3.45-acre site with permission for 108 apartments and a primary care centre at Harold's Cross, Dublin, for 4.5m and the sale of a 274-acre holding at St Edmondsbury in Lucan, Co Dublin, for 4.3m.

He appears passionate about the industry and as far as I remember it was him who travelled to the Mayors office in London to appeal for support for retaining greyhound racing at Wimbledon.

This question/answer session is a must watch for everyone involved in our industry.

Most of the questions being asked have already been discussed at length on this Forum including key issues re;

***the Board structure and governance,
***Board members and whether they should remain on the Board,
***integrity, drug testing, stanozolol (water/oil based testing),
***financial performance of industry, selling of assets (including Hx and the business plan that selected it from all Stadia for sale, buildings in Limerick and land in Cork),
***usage of straws from deceased dogs,
***and the public image of the industry including the media attention re the jockey who had a share in a dog that failed a drug test.
