Public Accounts Committee

National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: 2019 Financial Statement (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. David Gunning:

There is a quantum on it. However, because it is before conciliation, it is a confidential matter and I cannot share that information with the committee. These are not tens of millions of euro. These are smaller amounts of money. The liquidated damages is an issue that gets raised in the final account negotiations with the contractor. That is when that will happen. That is winding towards the conclusion.

Our primary focus here is on eliminating any more delay. Delay is the biggest source of cost, as I am sure Deputy Murphy is well aware of. We want to eliminate any further delay and get this hospital-----
