Mr. Mark Griffin:

There are extensive governance arrangements in place. Mr. Mulligan, Mr. Neary, Ms Leeson and other members of the team are constantly engaged with NBI. There are generally no surprises with deviations in figures. There are 17 groups in place that look at a whole range of things, meet weekly with NBI, and look at what issues have arisen and how blockers are being fixed. NBI is obliged by the contract to formally notify us of delays. There was constant engagement through 2020 and 2021. The Deputy asked me about targets for premises surveyed. This is an indicator for the potential for significant progress during 2022 and 2023. By the end of quarter 1, 56% of premises in the State will have been surveyed and approximately 47% of the premises will have been designed. Approximately 50% of the BCPs will be installed - that is 42% of schools and 95% of public points.
