Mr. Maurice Buckley:

Yes. Firms such as Actavo and EOBA which were awarded the bigger contracts used multiple subcontractors. At the committee meeting last week, the question of whether small and Irish suppliers got their fair share of the work was raised. I can confirm that they did. Many such suppliers worked as subcontractors for the bigger companies. We checked that the concessions in the Phoenix Park took on an appropriate amount of work through the various contract arrangements. Many of them were small companies which were only capable of taking on a certain amount of work.
