This person has written to us to express his frustration. As he sees it nothing has been done off the back of concerns he had raised with the OPW and the procedures costing the taxpayers money. I suggest we could share his frustration. He initially raised concerns going back to 2014 and given we have been waiting the best part of a year for the OPW to arrange a call with the landlord of the Miesian Plaza, we can understand his frustration. Would it be possible for the secretariat to write to the OPW on this and to inquire what progress it has made in seeking a meeting with the landlord? It said Covid was the reason on the last occasion but every country in the world is having meetings on line. That was just an attempt to delay or detract. I ask that we write to OPW asking what progress it has made in seeking that meeting with the landlord and if we could receive a response before the summer recess. This has been going on a little long now.
