My point is there was a particular legal firm that provided the main people who advised on the tender and the same legal firm are assisting the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board in dealing with the claims. I am asking whether that is robust enough. Is there a conflict of interest, in that they would be defending their own work but they also have the benefit of knowing the tender process? I have a question mark in my mind about whether that achieves the optimum. It may well do.
