Mr. John McKeon:

We had anticipated that the Government procurement frameworks would be in place by the time our contracts came to a conclusion, but they were not. That left us having to roll the contracts over.

Another case involved the procurement of translation services, which are important. Most people believe that this only means trí Ghaeilge, but many of our clients are from Poland, Russia and so on and we had to procure translation services.
