What I am saying is I have no difficulty with the regulator looking at whatever it looks at. Ms Licken is the Accounting Officer for the Department. With regard to what a private organisation may or may not have done and what mistakes it made, we should let the regulator do that job. In terms of public accountability, Ms Licken is the Accounting Officer for the Department. She said her Department will carry out a review. I accept what Ms Licken said, that there needs to be a time lapse between when the project is finished and when the Department carries this out. When she gets around to that, what specifically will it look at?
