National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: In response to the parliamentary question I mentioned earlier, the Minister said that "when a contract is awarded, the public authority must .... notify NERA and provide it with a copy of the form". He went on to say that "a dedicated email address" has been established in this regard and that "35 notifications have been provided to NERA to date [this year, presumably]". The number of...

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: I have no problem with primary care centres if they go that route. I have no objection in principle to that. All I am saying is that if the €105 million for the 20 primary care centres has come from the Department of Health, that is not a figure it can stand over. The Department has not produced a figure it can stand over in the past two years and I put the figure of €105...

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: This is my final point. The NDFA has signed a number of contracts and I have an important question to ask in the public interest in that regard. What measures does the NDFA take to ensure publicly-funded contracts are completed in accordance with the registered employment agreements, REA, tax and social welfare obligations and health and safety rules? What does the NDFA do to ensure that...

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: That is nonsense. It counts for nothing on a construction site to say the guys in head office have conducted a due diligence process. I am talking about a construction site for any project. The site might have 100 people, some of whom are on the dole, some of whom are not paid the REA rate and some of whom are not tax compliant. I have not mentioned unpaid sub-contractors and annual...

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: I will answer about one specific project, one of the NDFA's flagship projects, a beautiful school completed in Portlaoise and two in Offaly. For the duration of that construction contract, some workers used to arrive in their good clothes every Thursday morning to be brought by bus to the North by the subcontractor to collect their social welfare. I have said this on the public record in...

The note refers to the stimulus package announced by the Government on 17 July. What is the agency's role in the package?

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: Speaking from memory, the package included a figure of €105 million by way of PPPs for 20 primary care units. How did the agency arrive at a figure of approximately €5 million per primary care unit? Did it examine the position in different parts of the country in calculating the cost and would the cost be different in north Dublin compared to central Dublin or Ballaghaderreen?...

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: Mr. Murphy is here because he advises on the financing of PPPs. His agency is the State's adviser on the costing, financing and procurement of PPPs. It is involved in this process. A precise figure is set out for an exact number of projects. The NDFA is the sole State agency in a position to set out a figure, but Mr. Murphy saying €105 million is not his figure.

National Development Finance Agency Financial Statements 2011 (13 Dec 2012) Seán Fleming: In the context of the stimulus package, does the agency take a view on whether building 20 primary care centres in two packages of ten constitutes a good package for the market? I accept that Mr. Murphy may be unable to answer this question.
