Because of the lack of planning. It is a huge issue. There is no sanction in place whatsoever. There is frustration . I am aware there have been changes and the Comptroller and Auditor General has noted that. This committee comments on it and there has been some progress. Perhaps more cognisance is given by organisations than was given in the past, but it is still pretty much just a rap on the knuckles and that is it. The issue of procurement is such a problem that I believe we should examine it in its own right as part of our work programme.
