Received from a forum reader - copy of an email sent from Lewisham Council to Cllr Paschoud:

Interesting response and looks like this could be a significant update on what is planned for the future of this site.

In pre-application circumstances (ie before a planning application is made) an applicant is entitled to have the subject matter of enquiries treated as being confidential, thus preventing Council from discussing the matter publicly.

Is this pre-application status conferred on discussions or enquiries that take place after application decisions have been issued by Council? Anyone familiar enough with planning law or Council policy to clarify whether confidentially validly applies in these circumstances?

It is worth noting that if the land-owner decides not to proceed with hotel construction, this will result in the loss of a second potential mid-range hotel development opportunity in Forest Hill. NOT good for business development in the locale.
