Just a quick thought.....if the Panopticons scheme, is in fact, a single scheme (although multi-site) then I would assume that under public sector tendering rules that this was advertised in the OJEC? (Offcial Journal of the European Community).
To those of you who are not aware, all government procurements wth a capital value just above 100,000pds have to be advertised in this weekly journal to allow for competitive tendering thoughout the EU. If this ain't been done, and the Panopticons combined are a single scheme, then to go ahead without abiding by EU rules would make it illegal.
Any comments?
