- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Defective Concrete Blocks: Discussion (Resumed) (8 May 2024)
Rose Conway-Walsh: Could we get those figures? Could they be requested from the Department of public expenditure in order that we have those figures and know what the projected spend is out to 2030?
