Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on Construction of New National Children's Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board

9:30 am

Mr. David Gunning:

This will all be litigated in the future. Why did the conciliator make the decision he made? BAM sought €250 million and was awarded €108 million. Sorry, I used the wrong word that I said the Deputy should not use. There was a recommendation for €108 million. This money has been paid over. We do not accept that BAM has an entitlement to that money. We have issued our notice of dissatisfaction. Our claim is that the conciliator, in making those awards, and it was a bunch of awards, has made fundamental errors in that award.
