Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks Bill 2022: Discussion
Ms Sabrina Mackin:
Within the parameters of what we did on the terms of reference, we did not cost the replacement of foundations. The parameters of the scheme are outside what we should talk about. As a technical person I do not feel comfortable talking about this because we could talk for a half a day on whether or not the foundations should be included and that was a decision made by Government for the reasons it made it. Our report was a live snapshot of average costs that we did to try to help society. We did not include foundations.
