I certainly would not accept these figures in the way they are presented to us. Should we request a far more detailed breakdown of the figures for further consideration? No one is questioning the event, how it went off or stuff that could or could not have happened. We are satisfied that the OPW did its job. However, our job is to check the figures and I am not satisfied with the figures, as presented, or the answers we have been given. I ask the OPW to resubmit a more detailed breakdown indicating which companies won the contracts and providing detail on the procurement process it used to piggy-back on, as Mr. McMahon put it. We need to know that.
