Lewin to appear before committee

Mon, 20 May 2013

A former employee of Heritage Homes, who is now in prison, will be giving evidence on the controversial Kirk Michael land swap deal today.

Charles “Buster” Lewin will appear before the Tynwald Select Committee which is reviewing a deal made between government and Heritage Homes.

The arrangement fell through last year after an independent inspector’s report rejected the plans.

Mr Lewin, who was jailed for election fraud in December, has previously claimed his former employer had deliberately misled a previous Tynwald committee looking into the deal.

The hearing will be held at 10.30am in the Legislative Council chambers in Douglas. Members of the public are welcome to attend.
