"Ambassador Aria--To be concise-Yes and it will not affect both positions."
He was as confident as he could be in the answer.
>The Ambassador from Rigel caughed to suppress a chuckle.
Lorin looked directly at the Rigellian, "I am sorry Ambassador-do you need
medical care?"
The Deltan ambassador saw Renaud's reaction as counterproductive, so she
interjected before Rigel's ambassador had the chance to blow up. "Admiral
Renaud, I admire your confidence, but understand that we have reasons for
concern. During your watch as head of Spacedock operations, we have had two
unsolved murders, at least two assassination attempts on a flag officer that
remains open, and most recently, attacks on Star Fleet personnel that forced
Admiral Lasiter to order all flag officers to relocate to Star Fleet
Headquarters, apparently because the security there is better.
"If these matters remain unaddressed with your full-time presence, how
are they and any others that occur later, going to be resolved with your
attention
divided?
"I want to support your efforts with Research and Development.
However, I find it extremely difficult to justify that under the current
circumstances."
Shevab's antennae flipped back again in surprise. "Admiral, I believe you
could have left the snide remarks outside of the conference room. I believe
that there is a good reason to question whether you might be overextended in
the current situation. That is not to say that you are not a very qualified
officer, but as has already been stated. Space Station McKinly (OOC: Official
name of Spacedock) is not only an important facility, but a busy one. You
yourself have already identified that your new assignment in R&D is fraught
with the challenge of mismanagement and a need to clean things up. You have
stated the support you receive from the staff on the station, but what about
in
R&D?"
(Admiral?)
