I think it was exposed to substantial risk when it did not get a written evaluation. On the delegates' opening statement and the comments of the Comptroller and Auditor General on procurement, the university should be striving to be the bottom of the best as opposed to the top of the worst. I really do not get it when they are backslapping over the fact that there are universities that are worse than theirs. I ask that they remedy that in the future and strive to be the worst of the best.

The chancellor is sitting beside Professor Mey. I do not mind who answers my next question. Is it a fact that it was the governing authority that commissioned the report, not necessarily KPMG?
