Public Accounts Committee

National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: 2019 Financial Statement (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. David Gunning:

They are part of the overall number I have given to the Deputy. I am not in a position to separate out those cases. It would not be advisable since they are part of a High Court process. That is one of the stages of the disputes process. If the parties cannot agree the outcome then either party has the right to refer the matter to the High Court. That is a fact of the public works contract that we have entered into.
