I thank the Cathaoirleach and all our guests.
We all agree that this is an amazing much-needed project for the children of Ireland but it has been dogged from the beginning by astronomical costs, which seem to go up by the month. I have a couple of questions for Mr. Gunning. In February of this year, a representative from the NPHDB stated at the Committee of Public Accounts that the main contractor, BAM, was underperforming. Does Mr. Gunning still believe that BAM is underperforming in respect of the national children's hospital?
