It is proposed that the Economic Development Committee transfers to the Harbours and Airport Committee an area of land totalling 24,323 square feet (2,260 sq m) presently utilised by Elan Animal Products Ltd.

The existing building occupied by Elan Animal Products Ltd is to be demolished due to its close proximity to gas pipes located to the south of the site. Demolition will take place following the completion of the new animal incinerator at Howard Davis Farm, Trinity , and the relocation of Elan Animal Products Ltd to a site at Bellozanne to be provided by the Environment and Public Service Committee.

Following the transfer of administration, the Harbours and Airport Committee will seek to incorporate the western extremity of the site with its existing land for commercial marine use. Upon the vacation of Elan Animal Products Ltd., the Harbours and Airport Committee will bring forward proposals for using the land for marine purposes in accordance with the Port Master Plan, supported by Policy TT35 of the 2002 Island Plan.
