Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (Supplementary)

Mr. John McMahon:
As the Minister of State indicated, it was the largest public event in this country - and possibly the largest such event in Europe - this year. The firms that got the work were procured through invitation and tender on existing frameworks, it was not just a case of selecting on the basis of a single tender for this project. That did not happen; the firms were already on our frameworks. It is a case of horses for courses.
