- Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Select Sub-Committee on Public Expenditure and Reform: Estimates for Public Services 2015
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (Revised) (11 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: The Chairman can decide. I wish to ask general questions across the board. We will then clear the subheads one by one. I will concentrate on a few issues, one of which is flood risk management and the State's portfolio. The Minister of State says the OPW does a lot of work on behalf of other Departments. It manages the Leinster House complex, Government Buildings, Dublin Castle and...

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (Revised) (11 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: All I have are three blank walls and one with a window. In the context of the objectives for 2015, will the Minister of State outline the position on the 14 schools building projects - referred to in subhead B6 - the OPW will be managing? Why is it involved in this regard? I thought most of the PPPs relating to these projects would involve the Department of Education and Skills or...

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (Revised) (11 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: On the appropriations-in-aid, I asked the Minister of State earlier about recoveries for services carried out on a repayment or agency basis from other Departments and, under subhead C4, he is expecting to receive more than €7 million this year, having received a similar amount in each of the previous three years. How come they are still in the system if the Minister of State says his...

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (Revised) (11 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: Could the Minister of State go through it all and explain it to us again? The Department rents a property and the OPW pays it back. Is that correct?

Vote 39 - Office of Government Procurement (Revised) (11 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: On subhead A9, consultancy and other services, and subhead A10, Office of Regulator of the national lottery, there is a reduction in the consultancy fees because the national lottery was tendered and the cost is not coming in on this Estimate. What were the specific savings on that? The lottery regulator is answerable to the sub-committee and this is the first opportunity we have had to...

While I will move on, I am not happy with the answer the Minister gave me. He says the regulator has asked for a report, but that is looking for a report on a horse after it has bolted. If a regulator is to be of any use, a...
