    "content": "When we interrogated this matter, we were told that BRITAM, which was the lowest bidder, had issues with their documents. We asked them why they did not make an effort to go to them and ask them to make corrections. No answer was forthcoming. More importantly, we were told that, perhaps, the reason they were not ready or not in a hurry to make corrections was because they had under-quoted. How can BRITAM underquote or fail to understand the scope of the work they were quoting for when they were bidding for all the companies in the insurance sector in this country? It tells you that there was a clear determination to ensure that this particular contract was awarded to a company with the highest possible bid for obvious reasons. You can go on and on and you will see that this wanton theft of public funds was not restricted to the police or prisons insurance cover scheme. It was all over and we have documented in this Report graphically all the instances where public funds were misappropriated by officers, some of whom must be serving in public service. We have named them."
