The exchange, in full

Reply: I am informed that the amount due to the former landowner of Portion Number 40 at Fond du Sac was credited to the account of the Public Notary, appointed to draw the deed of acquittance, in November 2024.

139 In September 2025, my Ministry received representations from the former landowner that he had not yet received the compensation. My Ministry has, on several occasions, requested the Notary to effect payment of the compensation due to the landowner. I am informed that the Notary has called the former landowner to his office on 05 November 2025 for signature of the deed and payment of the compensation due.
