Members might recall that when Ms Geraldine Tallon appeared before the committee I raised the issue of a public private partnership, PPP, relating to a water project in Cork. In the course of that discussion it emerged that, on balance, the analysis of the awarding of that contract showed that it would have been more effective for it not to have gone the PPP route. I asked for some background clarification as to why that decision was taken. We were given a commitment that we would be given some background detail on that project but we still have not received it.
