Mr. John Conlon:

I am and I made that point at the PAC hearing I was at last year. I will give the Deputy some details in regard to those 74 instances as of November. A total of 24 have now concluded and we have finished spending on them. There are 25 that have completed on site and retention payments are still required. That means 51 are now concluded or coming to a conclusion. Three are ongoing and new procurements will be put in place, and more procurement processes are expected in 2026. I am determined to put in place new frameworks to lessen the rate of non-compliance. We will wash these out as quickly as we can but it sometimes takes them a while to wash out, with some of them being multi-annual building contracts. We are determined to reduce this substantially.
