Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Review of the Capital Plan: Construction Industry Federation

4:00 pm

Mr. Dominic Doheny:

We do not really mind. We are in the construction industry. All forms of infrastructure keep our members busy. For example, Sisk is the main contractor on the Luas cross city project. No matter what the item of infrastructure is, be it water, rail or electrification, our members are involved in it. If it is wind, our members are involved in it. That is a large part of the engineering solutions relating to the wind industry. We are not lobbying for any particular sector within the overall infrastructure. The Minister has made it known that our cities are not big enough and we need a counterbalance to Dublin. They need to be interconnectable to become bigger so our industry will be at the forefront of delivering whatever pieces of infrastructure are needed to connect them and make them sustainable.
