Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

National Children's Hospital: Discussion

Mr. David Gunning:

There is a process within the contract relating to claims. Claims arrive and are dealt with by the employer's representative. The employer's representative makes the determination on claims. She has determined 600 or so claims. However, if either party is not satisfied with a claim, it goes to what is called the project board. If there is no conclusion at the project board, either party can then refer the claim to conciliation.
