But McAulay's director Brett Allen says the building contract has now been passed on to the firm, Sir Robert McAlpine.

He says that company will now be responsible for beginning the development.

'Long relationship'

"We've done our bit it's now down to Sir Robert McAlpine to get on with it," said Mr Allen.

"I have a long relationship with them and they don't usually waste time.
