It sounds like the board had a contractor on site with which it did not work well, given that everything had to go to adjudication. It sounds like the board had a design team that got it badly wrong and had the board locked in. Is there any good news in respect of anyone the board was dealing with? Mr. Barry can hear what is coming out now. The builder had a problem. The board could hardly talk to the contractor about routine stuff and everything had to go to arbitration. The design team had problems. The board is examining whether it has a case. It was doing a project but had a problem with everyone it was employing. From listening to what Mr. Barry is saying, the board is contractually caught and the contractor has the taxpayer in a bind.
