Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Matters relating to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform: Discussion
Mr. Robert Watt:
We have debated this matter several times. I was in front of this committee before and I was before the Committee of Public Accounts and I spent seven hours talking about the children's hospital. I do not have anything further to say on the matter. I have unburdened myself considerably on all those matters for seven hours previously. Mr. Quinn was there to provide his expertise, we have explained his role and we have explained how he discharged his role. For the record, I have said before and I might as well say again that Mr. Paul Quinn is a fantastic officer who has done a brilliant job as chief executive officer of the Office of Government Procurement. I am delighted he works with us and works for us. I have nothing further to add.
