Ms Caron McCaffrey:

We are working in two ways. First, we are working with the OGP so that we are clear on its lead-in times for the awarding of contracts on our behalf. We now know that we must go 18 months in advance of an award for very technical contracts. As our contracts fall to be renewed, we will ensure to engage at the earliest possible stage with the OGP. Second, we are working internally with our director of finance to enhance the procurement skills available to us so as to ensure that our team, where appropriate, can put those contracts in place in a timely manner. This is an overall area that will be given attention and considered-----
