Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children's Hospital: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. John Pollock:
The tenders were returned to our office. It is a dual process comprising quality and price. We noted that the tenders came in. They are not opened on that day but are sealed in a safe. The quality evaluation then takes place and there is an external process auditor who reviews this, so it is quality and price, and the quality is scored and it is only after that has been determined that the pricing envelopes are opened. They are witnessed and signed by our board members.
