My immediate response to that is that the noble Lord’s second proposition is probably the one that runs; that is, that these would be commercial contracts. Obviously, the outcomes would be clear in a number of ways in terms of departmental statistics and more generally. I do not think that it would be usual for contracts of this nature to be fully within the public domain. Clearly, the process should be clear and transparent and there should be proper accountability.
