Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Construction of the National Children’s Hospital: Discussion
Mr. David Gunning:
We outlined in the submission the process of steps to go through. If we start with 1,623 claims, the number of claims substantiated, whereby the contractor has to give us a written explanation of what it is, is 1,296. Of the 1,296, the ER has determined 1,131. The contractor value that the contractor was looking for associated with that figure was €503 million. The employer’s representative, that is, the independent entity that reviews these claims and determines them, has stated the contractor is entitled to €9 million of that €503 million. We also identify savings for the employer on our side. We also have a number of claims.
