In the part of the review by the CCMA in relation to tendering, was it noted that perhaps there were glaringly obvious undercuts in some tenders? For example, if there are five tenders and three of them are sitting at one bar and two of them are sitting drastically, 25% to 40%, lower, there is an issue. Has it been noted and cited in the report that this needs to be included in the oversight going forward?
