Mr. Mark Griffin:
When one looks at 2013 consultancy the Deputy is talking about, the PA consultancy, there were four bidders with the contract awarded to PA on the basis of a certain approach the Comptroller and Auditor General has mentioned in his report. The way the payment system operated subsequently, we believe we got better value for money from that.
