National Children's Hospital: Discussion with Department of Public Expenditure and Reform
Mr. Robert Watt:
Its understanding was that the bill of quantities was not an approximate bill of quantities, that it was 95% specified. There would have been a risk of more spending but not of the scale that we have seen. It committed to preliminary works on the basis of a final tender price - the guaranteed maximum price - which was close to the price set out in the memo in spring 2017.
