Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Defective Concrete Blocks: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Derek Rafferty:

I will ask Mr. Wickham to specifically address the engineers and the research. On the timing of that report, a lot of the work was done in the period between November 2023 and January 2024. My understanding is the research did not come to light until after that. Certainly I was not aware of it until after that timeframe, nor were any members of the group. The report was a snapshot in time of how it was operating under the legislative framework that was there. That did not, and does not, include things like foundations. Mr. Wickham might comment on the technical aspect of that.
