National Children's Hospital: Discussion with Department of Public Expenditure and Reform
Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
The problem is that whatever has happened with the national children's hospital has happened. If possible, we must find a way to drive down costs, while delivering the project in a timely manner. Mr. Watt is the Secretary General of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. I want to have confidence that he believes that in the course of developing a budget for 2019, if a Secretary General knows that there is a potential overspend of €191 million on another project, he should be aware of it.
