BG/Transco have QA depts, so are monitoring quality.

Fine, but if they are still within the organisation, where are the
independent checks and balances? I'm not suggesting that
skulduggery goes on but the temptation and opprotunity is there.

In a privatised money grabbing world there is.

The temptation is there regardless. In the public sector it is lack
of control and competition resulting in complacency and laziness.

That is a silly comment to make.

Simply an observation of what can and does happen.
The point is really about opportunity and motivation.

You linked the terms "privatisation" and "money grabbing" together.
That is silly. There is nothing wrong with a profit motive, provided
that appropriate controls are in place.
