I apologise for being late and ask for forgiveness if I cover old ground. A number of questions spring to mind.
How many schools are involved? Perhaps an audit has been carried out in that regard.
Whenever a building is handed over, even a basic dwelling house, someone has to sign off somewhere along the line to confirm that it has been built according to planning and building regulations. Why did that not happen in the case of schools? Who fell down in that regard? If a school was to be constructed tomorrow, what has changed compared to what happened in the past?
