We will write to them. We did not ask about the income from advertising on the various bus shelters and who gets it. We will ask the question. We were shocked to discover at a meeting last week that the majority of the staff in the NTA are outsourced and on contract.

The NTA has a situation where it has 118 direct employees and 148 people sourced through agencies on placement contract. I have never seen this before.
