The group has also instructed the structural engineers, insurers and independent property advisers to assess the work completed thus far, and to review the completion date and strategies for the future.
Plant commented: "While we are completing our review, we are actively looking to secure the future of this scheme by inviting registrations of interest from parties looking to acquire the site.
"We are also reviewing the trading history of the business to better understand how the failure of the initial contractor to complete the works led to our client calling in administrators."
