Public Accounts Committee

2012 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
2012 Accounts of the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board

12:00 pm

Mr. John Pollock:

It was a mixture. Some of the assessment was internal. For instance, I was part of the assessment of the quantity surveyors. I did not sit on the civil structures assessment, because that could have been seen as a potential conflict of interest, because I had previously worked in that industry. Mr. Costello sat on a number of the panels and we had outsiders, from the HSE and the Department of Education and Skills. It was a combination of internal development board members, public servants, whether from the HSE or Department of Education and Skills, board members and one or two external people whom we considered had a particular expertise in an area.
