I reiterate that I want the National Transport Authority, NTA, to come in. As we can see here, this project has been pushed out by several years and the cost overruns are huge. It is something this committee needs to look at, as well as the fact we have the contract with Indra relating to the deployment of a very complex IT project right across a large number of the NTA bodies in terms of next-generation ticketing. It is essential we get the NTA in here to understand why these projects are not being delivered on time and why they keep being pushed out. We need to understand whether we are getting value for money on these projects. It is essential and is something I have been asking for over the last few months. I would really appreciate if we could get the NTA onto the work programme.
