1	Holystic approach	1,630,209.00	Professional services - Human Resources Manager and Officer and Company Secretary	Irregular contract from previous year. Contract extended due to vacancies in positions being occupied by the external resources	Due to High vacancies and high staff turnover sufficient and appropriately trained staff was not available, as the contract was already in existence and vacancies were being filled through the use of the contract, the contract was allowed to continue. The contract was raised as irregular in the previous year due to the evaluation system used not as what was advertised.	MDDA has advertised for the vacant posts and aims to fill the vacancies, which should prevent the use of the contract in future. In August 2017 MDDA has sent out termination letters to the Suppliers indicating that the contracts will be terminated.

The reasons recorded did not appear reasonable/ justified on the basis that it was impossible/ impractical to obtain 3 written quotations	Memorandum was signed and the board approved the sourcing of a legal opinion from a new service provider as they were of the opinion that the current providers Cheadle and Thompson attorneys were delaying the process and as this was an urgent matter and the case was heading to court as soon as the new supplier was appointed	MDDA has sourced out other services providers following the correct process, MDDA also plan on creating a panel of attorneys in order to prevent the recurrence of only sourcing one quotation due to the urgent nature of the case. In August 2017 MDDA has sent out termination letters to the Suppliers indicating that the contracts will be terminated.
