Paragraph: 12
The Government placed too much reliance on commercial carriers at the start of the crisis.
Conclusion
The Government placed too much reliance on commercial carriers at the start of the crisis. We were surprised that the Permanent Under-Secretary and the Minister gave different explanations for their Department’s decision to rely upon commercial flights. This decision was clearly made with cost saving in mind.
