I welcome the witnesses. Having been on-site on two occasions with the committee, it is clear it is a very impressive building.

It will be a world-class facility. At some stage these issues will be resolved and it will be about the care and well-being of children. The issue is we do not know when that will be. We do not know how many additional costs will be incurred between now and then. There are a couple of things. You have the time delay issues and the claims. Being devil's advocate, could some of the time delay issues be related to the claims, in terms of changes and knock-on impact for example? Is that the case? If so, are we talking about days, weeks or months? Is that a possibility?
