I welcome the witnesses and thank the board for facilitating us in July on the visit to the campus. As others have said, I was hugely impressed with the scale and size and what the project can and will be. As I said at the committee previously, a picture paints 1,000 words, and a site visit paints another 1,000 or 10,000. Well done to all involved. I am proud to part of the Government that sanctioned this and got it moving. There was much talk for many years on the delivery of this project.

Others have touched on the disputes. We were given the example that Covid was one of the reasons. Can the witnesses tell us the highest value of an individual claim? During Covid, how long was the construction of the facility shut down? Was the company in receipt of the State supports that were provided at the time, such as the employment wage subsidy scheme, EWSS, and the temporary wage subsidy scheme, TWSS, and all of that?
