Mr. Sean Bolger:
That is not my decision. Everybody is asking the same question. A clear process with high standards and qualification criteria was needed. All of the bidders should have had to go through it to ensure they had the financial capability and practical expertise to build, operate and manage the network. I do not know if that is the case with the current consortium as it has progressed and changed, but I am sure the original members of the bidding team were there for a reason. Now that some of them are no longer there, how is the loss to be made up? Again, we do not know. It is an issue about which everyone is talking. We are here to help the committee-----
