Dear N Smith,
The OIA was addressed to the minister for building and construction because he is the share holder I cannot see how you can transfer it to another minister when the questions need to be addressed by the actual share holder .
in 9 of my request please note that minister of finance should read minister of housing
Yours sincerely,
Grace Haden
