Department of Finance pays £10m for '£1m contract'

Options
Is it not only in the last year that there was a big furore about the Water Service awarding contracts without proper Tendering? Board members etc were sacked, people were suspended and investigated, there were big investigations etc.. Now we find that the Stormont departments have awarded abot 20% of its consultant contracts withut properly Tendering for them.... Roll on the mass sackings and suspensions and investigations

And to top it of the DOF overspend on one contract by 10 times the estimated value... OK if it was a £1000 contrct but it was a £1million contract that turned out to cost £10million.... :mad:
