It is a matter within the remit of the local authority. It has been raised time and again that, unfortunately, this committee cannot deal directly with the funding for local authorities. We have had the local government auditor before us to explain all of this.
We cannot get involved in the examination of that issue not only because it is before the courts and is an industrial issue in a private company, but also because it involves a local authority.
