Either the contract is extended, or a decision is made to terminate it. It will cost money if the government decides to end the contract, but ultimately, governments spend money on all kinds of things. If there is a strategic reason, a sovereignty-related reason or a security reason, and the government decides to terminate the contract, there will be costs and benefits to assess at that point. Will the contract be terminated immediately? Will the government allow the contract to run its course and then try to find another solution? The committee should take all of that into consideration.
