Peadar Tóibín (Meath West, Aontú) | Oireachtas source

The country is cursed with a number of scandals in relation to overspends on public projects. Aontú is fully in support of public project. We believe in public delivery, but the biggest threat to the confidence in public delivery has been a Government that has allowed such glacial movement in terms of infrastructural projects but also massive costs in terms of the delivery. The Government is in many ways incinerating taxpayers' money on so many projects. Vital projects are spending years in planning and delivery. I am asking what controls has Minister in terms of public spending.
