Ms Maria O'Dwyer:

We have multiple challenges. In order to deliver more for the people we serve, one of our key asks is that we have committed multi-annual funding. When delivering large-scale infrastructure, funding certainty is key to being able to give the supply chain predictable pipelines of work and in that way we are able to deliver more efficiently and effectively.

We also have challenges in being able to get the required consents to deliver our work. That is a challenge we have spoken about of late. The question is how we can get through the different statutory consents that are in front of us in order to get the required permissions to get onto a construction site to do the work. We have found of late that the engineering and actual construction works have become the more predictable part of our work and the piece that is uncertain is getting the multiple different statutory consents necessary to go on site and deliver projects.
