It is not my fault but the Chair is looking at me hoping that I shall stop. I want an answer from the Secretary General. Did the Department carry out a cost analysis of this proposal? I have read what the Department has said but the staff members have claimed the opposite. For all intents and purposes, it is staffless libraries but the Secretary General disagrees and that is fine. Did the Department carry out a cost analysis on the technology, cameras etc? Did the Department carry out a safety audit before the initiative was introduced? Did the Department learn from the pilot projects?
