2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 34 - Environment, Community and Local Government

Mr. John McCarthy:
There was a range of issues and risks that needed to be considered around the two options, either to discontinue the existing contractor and go through a procurement process or to continue the existing contractor on site to remedy and to complete. The relative costs and risks associated with that were the subject of a risk assessment and the outcome of that was that while there were pluses and minuses for both routes, on balance continuing with the existing contractor to remedy and to complete was the preferable option.
