Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children’s Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board
Mr. Tom Costello:
It applied in respect of phase A works. The phase A works - the basement works - were done with the contractor having risk. That will be completed on budget in the next few months. That part of the job has gone well. Again, one might argue it is relatively straightforward as it is digging a large hole in the ground and creating a concrete box in that but we are going to the next phase in terms of risk. Given the size and complexity of the job, the contractors have undertaken a very substantial risk for the next four years.
