I have given it a chance. The committee has held hearings and I am dealing with issues that are happening right now in the HSE, the Garda Síochána and an agency that is delivering services on behalf of the Department of Health. It is shocking. Sometimes, bodies pay no attention to the regulations on procurement. They are not impressed by the legislation. They have cultures and so on that need to be broken. I am making my view known to Mr. Watt.
