I would appreciate the detail on what was paid and when. It is alarming that a substantial lease - the sums have been articulated - would be paid to a landlord when the OPW is not using the building. I appreciate the fit-out can take time, but we are talking about weeks and months for that, rather than years. There are concerns about Bishop's Square and the waste of money that perhaps took place. The question is whether that has been replicated across other buildings. Are there are other leases that have lain vacant for a period of time within the portfolio?
