That's right, but somewhere along the line, if one scam artist is billing the taxpayers for 24 hours to three different contractors, we are not getting 24 hours of work.
How is it that the contractor is not aware, and how is it the departments are not aware?
If you look at the work being done right now on, say, Centre Block, if you hire a carpenter to do x amount of work, he can't be billing for 24 hours of work for what is obviously just eight hours.
How is this slipping by not only the contractors, but also the departments?
