I would like that information. Are there other examples of this sort of waste in respect of BusConnects specifically?

Turning to outsourced placements, the NTA had a recruitment embargo and could only employ a further 80 people. Is the NTA's ratio between outsourced and regular staff essentially 50-50? Ms Graham mentioned that, although the NTA would shed some of the contracted staff when it received its full staff complement, it still wanted to keep a few. Why is that the case? It is an honest question. Why can the NTA not have in-house expertise?
