Mr. John McKeon:

I can assure the Deputy that we are doing everything that we can within the law. If she saw the consultant's report, which most people have at this stage, there is a recommendation, for example, that the performance element would be 25% and not 10%, that the pricing under tender would be higher and that there would be far fewer regions. We have actually moved as far as we can.
