In his opening remarks, Mr. Howard indicated the Department had commissioned an interdepartmental group in 2017 to review the experience of PPPs and report to the Minister. The report was commissioned before the case emerged. I take Mr. Howard's point that, in the fullness of time, the Department may examine this case. The report, which was published only yesterday and sets out its main outcomes in four bullet points, does not take into account the case we are discussing.
