Mr. Chairman, I am just flabbergasted. We have a time frame problem. We go to a southern firm with a sole sourced contract for $700,000, but we do not have time to go and check with northern firms to see if they can do part or parcel of this whole contract? My question to the Minister is; why did they not go to northern firms to check to see if they could do portions or all of this contract?
