Can we assume it could be down in your part of the world
You can - it could be - maybe not :) Yes it is
The ninth floor would be considered by some to be the most important

MM would you Care to post the Next Dial-Up ?
The Beehive is the common name for the Executive Wing of the New Zealand Parliament Buildings, located at the corner of Molesworth Street and Lambton Quay, Wellington. Credit for the design is usually given to Scottish architect Sir Basil Spence, who made a rough sketch on the back of a dinner napkin in 1964 while dining with Sir Keith Holyoake. The building was subsequently drafted and constructed by government departments and completed in 1981.
The sketch by Sir Basil Spence for the planned BeehiveThe building is ten storeys (72 m) high. The top floor is occupied by the Cabinet offices, with the Prime Minister's offices on the ninth floor (and part of the eighth). Other floors contain the offices of individual cabinet ministers.
Other facilities within the building include function rooms such as a television studio, press theatre, and a banqueting hall, as well as service rooms, among which are the parliamentary catering facilities of Bellamy’s including a bar known as 3.2 (due to its position in the building), Copperfield's and the Member's and Guests restaurant. The building also houses, in its basement, the country’s main civil defence headquarters.

Bowen House (left), the Beehive (centre) and Parliament (right)The Beehive's circular footprint (rotunda) is an elegant and attractive design feature. However it is also quite impractical, as many of its rooms are wedge-shaped or asymmetrical, with desks and other office furniture at awkward angles.
The Beehive's brown roof is constructed from 20 tonnes of hand-welded copper. It has developed a naturally weathered appearance.
During the 1990s, there was a proposal to physically move the Beehive so as to allow for the extension of the Parliament Buildings. Due to public disapproval, this plan was never carried out.
