That would be good because we have a situation where there is an old wreck of a building in the centre of town, a fabulous location, and it is State property. It looks as though we are going to just move and start renting down the road at something that is far less advantageous in the long term for the taxpayer. I have a simple question. During the negotiations, why did the OPW not just offer to buy the building? Would that not be far better in the long term.
