No, I understand all of this. Correct me if I am wrong but there is a process for State-owned centres, where that is contracted. It is done by procurement and companies or people are brought in to run the services. Then there is direct provision which is not done by procurement and the Department enters into a negotiated agreement. That issue was raised back in 2015. I have moved on from that and am asking what changes have been made. I am being told the Department is going to go to procurement.
