I understand that people have an entitlement to a judicial review. Mr. O'Neill made reference to the need for a very well-run public procurement process that is transparent. Were any lessons learned from the procurements that did result in a challenge? Did TII learn any lessons with regard to spending at the beginning of the public procurement process to mitigate against possible challenge? I accept that it can never be avoided completely but what can be done to mitigate against it?
