National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: 2019 Financial Statement
1:00 pm
Mr. David Gunning:
I think we need to decouple the issues. The number of claims the contractor submits is not a condition of our control environment or the way this project is run by the development board. That is a decision by the contractor to put in these particular claims and our responsibility is to robustly defend them. There is no correlation or causation between these particular issues.
