Sadly, I cannot find the specification that caused $640 million to be committed over 10 years! ($64 million per year for a decade is a nice little earner!)

You have to wonder how much went to all sorts of  other providers for all this.

I really cannot see how the public have had value for money for all this!

What do you think?

David.
