Independent advice has been sought over the multi-million pound Swine roller-coaster proposals, it was revealed today.
Consultants Deloitte and Touche have been appointed to look in detail at the plans, spearheaded by Basildon businessman, Tony Garner.
Mr Latham said: "We are in discussions with the Swine ride developer about the plans and we are awaiting further independent advice on that. I believe that advice on the matter is imminent."
Mr Garner said earlier this week that talks were continuing with council officers over the plans.
