2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works

Mr. Ciaran O'Connor:
With respect, no.
The Deputy is incorrect. We got a Government decision on 28 June. We had a contractor appointed on 4 July. On 27 September, we had subcontractors appointed and on 7 November, we began our first set of houses. That is at 40% of the timeline that the same contractor, Sisk, was building houses in Ballyogan. We did it in less than 40% of the time in which Sisk did it. To be fair, that is a reasonable outcome.
