I just want to put a number of other questions. My first observation is that Mr. McKeon makes the point that confidentiality could be seen as a way of protecting the State. Mr. McKeon sees it in that light. He wants to make sure we get the best possible price. There is logic to that but only on the basis that one accepts that outsourcing of all the service delivery is good. Confidentiality also means we do not have accountability, or, at least, full accountability and transparency.
