Bord na gCon - Annual Accounts 2011

Mr. Adrian Neilan:

In hindsight, I need to go back and talk to my project management team to understand how our engineers could develop the view that this was going to be part of an item for sale. To be fair to our engineers, we evolved to a methods statement as to how the fill would be brought on site to make sure it was brought in the right truck loads, the right quantities and that it would be deposited in the right areas. It is not right to say we ignored them completely. We said there were elements which could be done and which we would take on board. We are not in the habit of ignoring our legal advice or our consultants' advice. That is what they are there to do.
