Lorindil's Briricca Report has been wedged between the pages of a book on Zenurie's desk, titled EEC Ship List, and is visibly protruding from that book if the desk is viewed from the room's entrance.
Most of the NPCs in this quest will be distinctly unhelpful unless you have 30+ disposition with them.
If Aetia has been removed from her position as result of a quest, Merxia Vendicci will take her role - however, having only just arrived in the office, she will immediately delegate the signature to the deputy, Zenurie.
The above accommodation for Aetia's removal is perhaps an oversight, as the quest which can remove her does not occur until this one has been completed.
