Resolution of AHTC case overdue

I refer to the report “Independent panel appointed over AHTC’s improper payments” (Feb 18). This case, from its initial findings to the events to date, has stirred up several questions.
According to reports, it involves improper payments and overpayment of service fees, improper awarding of contracts, lapses in accounts, et cetera.
In cases of companies committing similar improprieties, these are usually dealt with swiftly and in a straightforward manner.
