I am unhappy that JPA was even shortlisted for an award. Those who accepted the nomination from the company responsible should bear in mind the number of adverse comments should they ever be put forward again.
At least those who are suffering their system and looking forward to many years of unnecessary problems they have caused can take some solace that no award was made.
