Reform of Public Works Contracts for the Construction of Transport Infrastructure: Discussion
Ms Ethna Brogan:
The Revised Estimates, as the Deputy will know, are now settled for 2022, so we have a ceiling and no additional funding is being made available. In deciding on the projects to proceed, we had prioritised on the basis I have set out in my opening statement, starting with those that were under construction, followed by those that were near construction and then, further down the pipeline, bypasses etc. The funding is settled for this year. Unless more funding becomes available, we will not be able to progress those projects.
