Ms Patricia Callan:
Something has. Certainly, the threshold changes have meant that other companies are able to tender. In terms of how it is implemented, many tenders which have come out since have been in breach of it. They had the wrong insurance and turnover thresholds. When we raised that, tenders were changed and reissued in the main. It is up to us to enforce it where we see a breach rather than it having to be followed by people.
