No. I have now gone beyond that and have a list before me. I am inexperienced in this area, but when I look at the list, I see there are procurement rules. An Garda Síochána's procurement non-compliance rate is approximately 10%, for which the witnesses have given us the reasons of security and sometimes urgency, but there is no such evidence for a lot of the items. While I accept that sometimes it has to be done, why would it have to be done in the supply of fruit and vegetables?
