The Select Committee of Tynwald on the Kirk Michael School Land Exchange will be taking oral evidence in the Legislative Council Chamber, Legislative Buildings, Bucks Road, Douglas, from Lewin.
Lewin has in the past claimed that his former employer Heritage Homes had deliberately misled the committee about the deal.
On November 20 last year it was resolved by Tynwald:
‘That the Report of the Select Committee on the Kirk Michael School Land Exchange Agreement [PP No 0122/12] be not received and: (1) In the light of new evidence received in relation to rights over access routes, that the committee review all matters pertaining to that evidence; (2) That the Committee seek clarification by way of public hearing of the matters raised from Heritage Homes and associated parties.’
