This problem was beginning to grow and emerge as a serious issue. In the context of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, and the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General, would Mr. Watt not have thought of stating to the Comptroller and Auditor General or the Minister that it would have been a good idea to get an independent assessment in place to report directly back? I am referring to the Comptroller and Auditor General.
