Public Accounts Committee

Houses of the Oireachtas Commission Appropriation Account 2018

Mr. Peter Finnegan:

We are, in a sense, the client. The OPW is acting on our behalf but we have a steering group that oversees the project, which Mr. Michael Errity chairs. That group meets on a monthly basis. It was presented with monthly reports and all of those issues would have come through. We also brought in our own expert to work for us who gave us a good independent take on what was being done as part of that project.
