I can understand the contract arrangements for servicing equipment such as this. One is locked into a supplier as part of the original deal. However, it is not all explained under the heading. There are purchases which account for a total of €2.2 million. There are four urgent purchases which came to a figure of €306,000. Within the sum of €7.9 million, there are obvious breaches of the procurement process. Will Mr. Donnellan deal with the breaches of the process, rather than the understandable conditions of a service contract?
