The public are looking on and thinking that significant sums are being paid out. Public trust depends on openness and clear communication, so I thank Mr. Delaney for his answers. What is the Department doing to rebuild public confidence to show that spending is transparent, that procurement, especially when it comes to IPAS, is fair, and that the system works for international protection applicants and the wider communities, where a lot of these centres are based?
