Is it not the argument that if I have entered into a contract, there is now a legally binding agreement there? If I have an issue about how the process was dealt with, is that not what the Committee of Public Accounts is about? Is it not about ensuring that proper procedures and proper mechanisms were used in arriving at a decision on awarding a contract? Is the Chair now telling me I must wait until the audited accounts for that particular organisation or public body are published in 12 months' or two years' time?
