Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Pre-Legislative Scrutiny of the Draft General Scheme of the Building Control (Construction Industry Register Ireland) Bill 2017

9:30 am

Ms Deborah Meghen:

The contractors who would apply under the public procurement processes would have to come under the CIRI Bill. It is one of the positives. When a design team is applying for work under public procurement, it does not know which contractor it will work with and which contractor's work will be signed off. If CIRI is brought in, at least it will know all the contractors under public procurement will meet a particular standard.
