Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, actually maybe Ms. Lee missed it because I did answer her question about why the expectation was that anybody who had space would have already applied for it, and that is that whenever you have a public process, people who are landlords tend to be very aggressive. In the experience of government. when an advertisement is placed for space, there are always, or there seems to always be, particularly for governments to take that space, there is always a big demand. Landlords typically respond very aggressively when governments advertise that they have space available. So the expectation is that once you have run an advertisement process, and landlords also know about the Public Works website, once it's been posted and the advertisements have run, the expectation is that everybody who is interested in the space has submitted an application. Now, was there other space out there? Well, there may have been, but perhaps the landlords were not looking to rent 1,800 square metres or 1,800 square feet, they wanted to rent larger or smaller portions. It's really a question of supply and demand and what's available at the time. Since the interest was in finding the space at that time, the expectation was that everybody who had space that was suitable would have responded.
As to what is a special warrant; a special warrant is the authority to spend. So the Members are quite right; the money hasn't been spent, the money may not all be spent, but the usual practice is to make sure that you have the authority to spend before you sign a contract that would require the expenditures, such as tenant improvements.
