<br /> a full range of knowledge. They will provide the committee with information
<br /> and allow them to male the choice , the decisions are yours.
<br /> Bill Marti ros asked if they , the project manager , becomes responsible for a
<br /> mistake that slipped through, a grey area?
<br /> Mr. Aitchison said they will seek to make sure the architect mets h i s
<br /> responsibility , we will get redness from the architect.
<br /> Ms . Scarlet added they will look for blatant errors, they will review to
<br /> some level of detail but no one will catch everything . It is best for the
<br /> Committee to establish criteria that you can give to the architect so it is
<br /> clear i f that criteria has not been met.
