Defective Concrete Blocks: Discussion

1:30 pm

Mr. Cian O'Dowd:

The certificate of remediation will be provided in respect of the scheme as it currently operates. If the standard changes to a relatively significant extent, it is conjecture on my part as to what would happen but, certainly, there would need to be some examination of that. The principal difficulty, however, and this what it really boils down to, is that at the moment we do not know when that revision is coming, nor do we know precisely what it will say. The answer to this quandary is to get that revision completed as soon as possible, and one of our key messages as part of our statement today is that the resourcing of that with the NSAI, in a way that manages to conclude that as quickly as possible, is both urgent and essential.
