ConnectIreland's 'Succeed in Ireland' Programme: Discussion

11:00 am

Ms Joanna Murphy:

The contract did provide for a dispute, which is well rehearsed, that we have some issues over numbers, verification, red-lighting etc. The arbitration clause was excess within the contract and ConnectIreland has not commenced arbitration. We want to resolve and continue. It is not our wish to go down that road. Of course, the contract provides for it, but that is not what ConnectIreland wants.
