The types of projects undertaken include roads, bridges and motorways. Two or three motorways were undertaken and perhaps more. Can the witnesses indicate the benefit derived in measured terms as a result of adopting this approach? I refer to value for money and achieving a satisfactory result much earlier or much later than would ordinarily be the case. For instance, I can think of some road projects that should have been undertaken years ago. Why did we not move on them? If the projects that were undertaken were satisfactory and worked out okay in the past, why not do more of them?
