The committee tried to bring in that Department but I refer to Mr. Joe Hamill's surgery. I am sorry that some officials are not present but that is beside the point. The other issue, which I consider to be relevant, is about the expertise and experience within the Office of Government Procurement when it comes to air services and air transport. Would one not be better off dealing with the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport to a certain extent when it comes to these services?
