Dear Jim Fitzpatrick,
 
Following your conversation earlier with Cllr Alibor. Please see the statement below, as issued by the Mayor and Cllr Shahed Ali. This will be circulated to newsrooms and on our website within the hour.
 
Commenting on the Trinity Gardens proposals, Mayor Lutfur Rahman said,  "Staging events in the Gardens was an idea put forward by Trinity House who have been working with the Council and the proposed event organisers so I am surprised by comments made this weekend. The Council do not wish to cause any offence to any of the parties involved. As it no longer has the support of Trinity House and the maritime community I have put a stop this event." 
 
Ward Councillor and Cabinet Member for the Environment, Cllr Shahed Ali, added 'These gardens are an important part of the borough's heritage and I am extremely glad the Mayor has used his executive powers to stop the event taking place.'
 
Thanks,
Ellie
