I don’t believe I was suggesting that

the bridge was not a good project. By the time the government took over the project, I believe it was extremely well managed and it has become an excellent piece o

f infrastructure. That’s not the

issue. The issue is that the project started under a veil of suspicion and it continued under that veil of suspicion for quite some time.

There is no analysis, to my mind, that’s been done, looking at all the documents I got from the Minister. There’s nothing that looks at the project from its inception from the 15th Assembly when it was first

discussed, from the transition from the 15th to the

16th when the contract was signed and then on into

the 16th until the government took it over. There is

nothing which I can go to or direct the public to go where they can see what sorts of things happened and what went wrong.

I would like to ask the Minister, there were lessons to be learned, absolutely. The lessons that were learned by the department were from a review team

and specific to the building of the bridge. I don’t have a problem with that. My problem is what lessons were learned from the very inception of the bridge project. Thank you.
