Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

Uisce Éireann: Future Work Programme

2:00 am

Mr. Niall Gleeson:

For construction, it is very difficult because we want to have flexibility. For example, if we have a very mild winter we might run a lot more pipe than we would during a very cold winter. We want that flexibility in the supply chain in order to be able to deliver. Right now we balance our budget on a capital basis to the euro every year, and that is not great. One would not run a construction business in the private sector in that way.
