Knowle relocation project: waiting for the tribunal process to be 'completed'

Again, the press has chosen to highlight the saga of the District Council releasing - or not releasing - documents around its relocation project:
Futures Forum: Knowle relocation project: "The main thing is process."
Futures Forum: Knowle relocation project: 'key documents' are published - but outstanding reports still yet ‘to be published in line with tribunal directions’

This is from the front page of the latest View from Sidmouth:

And yet, whilst awaiting for the next tranche of documents, it is clear that the Tribunal feels it has been treated in a 'discourteous and unhelpful manner':

This does not necessarily promise a 'new phase' of 'transparency' on the part of the District Council:
