No, in terms of what happened. This went on from 2006 to 2018. The site is still not fully open in 2018. Serious questions have been raised by the Comptroller and Auditor General. He makes two recommendations and he highlights a number of "inadequacies", let us put it like that, in moderate language. Terms like "Rocky Horror Picture Show" were used in my time on the council. Will the witnesses address it with regard to the inadequacies raised by him relating to absence of supervision over a long time? For example, when this went out for second tender, the Department was unaware of it.
