Go raibh maith agat, a Chathaoirligh. Fáilte roimh an NDFA arís go dtí an coiste and this time we are joined by the Department officials. Did Mr. Cahillane watch, or read the transcripts of, the testimony given by the victims of the Sammon Contracting collapse to the committee, during which they gave their personal stories? One person recounted that he could not get out of bed for a week as a result of the position in which he found himself, another spoke of having equipment worth €250,000 in a school to which the company could not get access. Others spoke about tension in homes and parents not being able to retire. Did the witness watch that testimony or read the transcripts later?
