Given the transition from the first to the second phase, would it not be pretty obvious that the party with the phase A contract would get the phase B contract? There is a penalty for a contractor in the form of incurred costs of €300 million if horses are changed mid-stream. There may also be a delay in the delivery date by two years. It would be pretty obvious to BAM Ireland that there was no possibility it would not get the second phase.
