In terms of the work of the PAC, wearing its non-political hat, is it possible that the information that is forthcoming could be examined by the Comptroller and Auditor General in the normal way? That would allow this to be looked at outside of the political process. The normal examination would have taken place on a random basis. This is one item that has arisen and it must be addressed in the interests of the PAC. We would address any item of expenditure at that level in the normal way and this is no different. Could that be looked at in that way?
