We received a good breakdown about staffing from the NTA and will get a note on the matter. When the NTA tenders out, it presumably tenders out for more than one person or perhaps it can vary. What disciplines is it looking at? Is it engineering and planning or administration or a combination of all of those? Is there a staff retention issue? If somebody is coming towards the end of a contract, people want certainty in their lives and such. Does that cause a problem with institutional memory and training in the organisation that then has to be repeated? Are those issues captured in the NTA's report?
