I welcome our guests and reiterate our appreciation and thanks to all OPW staff for their work, particularly during the Covid-19 period. It has not gone unnoticed. I seek a little information on the measured term maintenance contracts awarded to PJ Hegarty & Sons over a long period. The report of the Comptroller and Auditor General deals with the period from 2015, but I understand that the company in question has been doing this type of work since 2010. While I do not expect our guests to have the information to hand, will they revert to the committee with a brief on the work undertaken prior to 2015?
