I am quoting from the annual report. It states that the Commission is responsible for determining financial and administrative policy in the Houses. In doing that, I was drawing attention to the fact that they know about financial accountability, the Committee on Public Accounts and value for money and everything else and yet they would not even ask the OPW about the price before it went to deliver the project. It is an awful reflection on them.
