We say this all of the time because we can only speculate but I would say it is a racing certainty it will not be June next year. We are going into a further delay.

I want to make this point because it is important for us as committee members to do so. I call on BAM and the contractor to do everything possible to resource this project, step up to the plate and do what they need to do. This is a call we should all make. Equally, if there are other issues from the board's side that BAM is stating are delaying the project, then I appeal to the board to make sure this happens because we want to get this project done. There has to be political accountability also. Earlier we discussed the role of the Minister and meetings with the Minister. Are there weekly, bi-weekly or monthly meetings with the Minister? What way does this happen? Are they formal? Are they in-house or Zoom meetings? In what way do the meetings take place?
