National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Financial Statements 2018

9:00 am

Mr. Jim Breslin:

The context within which PwC framed some of this was that it considered that some of the expertise was in the design team rather than in the development board itself, and some of the integration within the design team and between the design team and the executive in the development board needed to be strengthened. I know that the development board has substantially enhanced its claims-management process and has brought expertise into the board to support it in that regard. It has stronger control systems in place post-PwC than would have been in place at the time.
