No, the Goverment and it can change/bend/alter the rules as it wills if
needed to meet its ends.
If GPs are just rolling over for PCGs (as you have rightly pointed out
and I'm in total agreement with you), can you see an uprising if OOH
Dev. MOney is changed in direction, but the argument would be it is
developing OOH to help GPs.
I'm as cynical too, but you have to be realistic.
