In the correspondence about the contracts awarded without a competitive procurement process, Tusla stated it had consistently focused its efforts on addressing non-compliance issues and contracts utilising a risk-based approach in allocating its available procurement resources. I wonder where it did so, however, because all the evidence suggests it did not. In section 4, it explicitly states the procurement system relies heavily on self-reporting. Is Tusla suggesting, therefore, that it learns of non-compliance only after the fact?
