Ruairi Quinn (Dublin South East, Labour) | Oireachtas source

Obviously what the Deputy has just recounted is a clear instance of the law being broken and blatantly so. This problem has persisted for many years with regard to some builders on some sites. I am absolutely determined, in so far as I can, to ensure that the sites in question are operating correctly and that money raised from taxpayers is properly spent, in accordance with the law. I was assured that the inspections that have taken place to date and the inquiries that were made did not reveal any substance to the allegations made by the Deputy. However, arising from what has just been said, I will make further inquiries and respond to the Deputy directly on this matter.
