I have one final point to make which is the same question regarding Government procurement. Last week, we had a Department in here where it was explaining that the funding of the local State solicitor's office was €8 million. It does not go to audit or to tender. How does that fit in with the Office of Government Procurement's overview of what is being purchased by the State? Would the office look at how that process works, if it had discovered it, and whether or not an element should be put out for procurement?
