Just spit-balling a bit here, but why doesn't DoT buy 5 new helicopters (€100m), hire 20 crews to fly them = 80 people (€16m/year), hire 20 people to maintain them (€4m/year), hire 20 people to fill the perfect persons and back office staff roles (€3m), flash new hangars and offices at 5 bases (€25m) = €355m for most of the basics. With a total budget of €800m over 10 years that leaves you with about €44m per year to buy the fuel and the spares and the coffee and sandwiches. If you can't run your own show with that big bucket of money to throw at it something is wrong.
