I have not yet received the final report from PA Consulting. However, I understand that the drafting of the Report is ongoing and is nearing completion. Officials in my Department are currently engaged with PA Consulting in quality assuring the work done to date to ensure that the report meets the requirements of the contract. It is expected that drafting will be completed within the coming week with a final report being delivered shortly after that. I eagerly await receipt of the report and following consideration of the recommendations, I intend to publish the report and engage with all of the key stakeholders on the way ahead.
