communications there have been

Plug that in.
Peer comment(s):

agree Robert Forstag : Or: "that have taken place"; "that have occurred", etc. // I think that the reason that your spot on suggestion hasn't garnered more "agrees" is that, in isolation, it sounds incoherent. Yet when plugged into the sentence, it is of course correct....

Gracias, Robert. There are a number of possibilities, all good. Of course, it needs to be "plugged in", then it becomes clear.
agree philgoddard : You don't really need to say "there have been".

Gracias, Phil. Another possibility.

interesting, thought there would be debate about prior vs previous. On reflection, I think 'prior' implies a deliberate act (as in prior arrangements) rather than simply 'occuring before' so I now stick to my suggestion, and thank you for the support
