According to the OAG, analyses produced in 2009 came to significantly different conclusions as to the announced timing of the construction work.
Since the OAG's report was produced in 2009—and I refer you to paragraph 3.41—the department has hired a consulting firm to provide an independent review of the analyses and conclusions respecting costs, as well as of the timing of the construction work.
What is the current status of the independent review and what does the review indicate about the risks, costs and timing of the construction work?
Paragraphs 3.19 and 3.41 further note that two studies were conducted by consulting firms, the first in 2006 and the second in 2009.
