Noel Dempsey (Meath West, Fianna Fail)

What I expect to be done is exactly what the NRA is doing as the contracting party with NMI. It will pursue this company legally to get it to comply with the terms of its contract. If the equipment does not meet the standards clearly laid out in the contract, if it will not stand over that and deliver to the terms of its contract, the NRA has the right to go after it legally to get recompense for any loss and, if needs be and it has to do the work itself to ensure there is no reduction in the service, to cover costs. That is a legal and contractual matter between the NRA and the company concerned. I am satisfied the NRA is doing everything it legally and physically can do to ensure these types of incidents, which are totally unacceptable, are eliminated as quickly as possible, or are kept to a minimum until they can be fully eliminated.
