Mr. Tony O'Brien:

I do. In this case, it is fortunate that this is not the first time we have deployed cardiac catheterisation mobile units and consequently we have a valid framework in place. That provides for a number of pre-qualified suppliers, each of which, when a hospital wishes to draw down, is invited to take part in what is colloquially called a mini-competition. The suppliers are pre-qualified through open tender to take part in the mini-competition against each other. It is intended to commence that mini-competition within the framework in the next few days. That will be validly procured. If that were subsequently included in the sampling by the Comptroller and Auditor General, subject to the view he reached, I would be satisfied that it would be deemed to be procurement-compliant, provided all steps are followed correctly.
