I propose to take Questions Nos. 303 and 304 together.

My Department and the 8 Offices of my Department do not currently rent or lease any properties. All the properties occupied by the Department and its Offices are provided by the Office of Public Works (OPW) without any cost to the Department or the Offices concerned. In many of those cases, the properties are rented or leased by the OPW and the information requested by the Deputy, in relation to the number and locations of buildings that might be in an upward only rent review contracts and the cost of such rents, could only be supplied by the Office of Public Works.
