This relates to the measures the Minister of State outlined in his initial response that were taken to combat spiralling inflationary costs in the past year or 18 months. I think back to a project in my area. I will not identify the school but it was a school contract where the legislation provided for schools and other bodies to engage voluntarily in the process surrounding revised costs and the spiralling of inflationary costs for projects. Has the Department done any analysis on the number of schools or other public bodies that did not engage with that or did not engage with the developer, as in this case? I know it has turned one specific contractor in my part of Cork off doing any public contracts for the foreseeable future. Has any analysis been done on that?
