You mentioned that one of the highest criteria for a complaint was overly restrictive specifications. If a complaint was raised on that basis and the complaint came to you and it was on a very technical matter, how would you, amongst your tribunal, have the expertise to decide whether those specifications were in fact overly restrictive or whether it was actually pretty necessary for the unique characteristic of that particular procurement? I'm just wondering how that works out. Do you access outside expert help or consultants?
