Mr. Bourke cannot expect this committee to accept the OPW has any credibility in this matter. Let us just start from the €10 million. It is clear to everyone that the OPW has not done that. With each tender issued, the amount went over by multiples. Has the OPW got its act together with the new €10 million framework? Can Mr. Bourke guarantee that it will not blow taxpayers' money in multiples because it has not been able to adequately forecast the amount of work that needs to be done and the cost?
