Is the Secretary General satisfied with the performance of the City of Dublin Vocational Education Committee? There was an open tendering process for this. CDVEC, like other VECs across the country, does valuable and excellent work and stands on its record, but this particular project has not been its finest hour. Clearly, it and the Department have lessons to learn. The public will be the ultimate arbiter in terms of whether it is satisfied, but are there any sanctions available to the Department if it is dissatisfied with the performance of that contract?
