In regard to this documentation, with respect, I find Mr. Buckley's answers to be deeply concerning. As far as I am concerned, on the issues raised here, the lessons have not been learned to the level I would have expected. I cannot be guaranteed the internal changes have happened in the OPW. By extension, I do not have any confidence as a result of what I have seen in this documentation with regard to responding to the author. Despite the deep concerns the author expressed to the OPW, it has not responded. Second, I predict that the projects and the purchases outlined here will have to be looked at in the future by the Comptroller and Auditor General, just as the newly purchased headquarters of the HSE were looked at. The fact Mr. Buckley is not getting into the detail of this, and the fact he is not willing to go through the loss of money to the taxpayer to the level that is required, and to respond to the author, for me, is deeply worrying.
