Mr. Ciaran O'Connor:
There are a number of issues. I think the OPW proved in Brexit and what we are doing with the Ukrainian project that we can move at great speed - faster than anybody else. However, we have to operate within the rules given to us. The rules given to us by Government are the Government form of contract. That is a flawed document in my clear view and it needs to be looked at. We have to work within that.
