Joe Neville: Lastly, there is a lot about physical infrastructure in the delivery of housing. Something that is often missed, and a lot of us have seen at local authority level, is that we can build houses but we do not necessarily build communities in the way we should.

Joe Neville: I thank Mr. Finnegan for all his efforts, the contribution he has made and even in my short time here the way he deals with us personally and his friendliness.

Joe Neville: It is those small personal touches from him. It is only a small thing, but at the same time they are the things that speak to us and to how he has handled his business, even before I was here.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2024: Houses of the Oireachtas Commission (25 Sep 2025)

Joe Neville: This issue has been covered by others, which is always the risk at the public accounts committee, but at the same time we have similar interests and similar things have been brought to our attention.

Joe Neville: Would Mr. Finnegan even give a colour of those services that might be provided, I will not say behind the scenes, but by the company itself just to give us a clear picture?

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2024: Houses of the Oireachtas Commission (25 Sep 2025)

Joe Neville: No, I am sorry; just within the company itself to provide the services. I think it might be Mr. Finnegan who actually speaks to that.
