    Further to the reply to written question 37231 (2026), what is the basis for the statement that Ferry Holdings Ltd has followed the Government Procurement Rules, and does it reflect his own conclusion, written advice he has received, or an assurance given to him by Ferry Holdings Ltd?

Answer

On the basis of an assurance from the Ferry Holdings Board. If the member thinks operational answers are given without checking the facts with the relevant entity then he has much to learn.
