We want to avoid a situation where this year's accounts are being considered by the committee next year and we are talking about very high levels of non-compliant procurement or what the committee might consider bad value for money. Is the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth applying emergency oversights now so that the Comptroller and Auditor General will not bring an alarming report to this committee next year?
