Catherine Murphy: When we see non-competitive procurement, it tends to be for one year. However, by virtue of the fact this is put in the “emergency” category, it is not following the usual processes that are very public processes where there is a tender. This is kind of doubly non-compliant because it would be following the normal type of procurement where there would be multiple tenders for...

I want to concentrate exclusively on the international protection provision. Mr. McCarthy says he cannot tell us the amounts for...
