Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: I can see it being a case of pass-the-parcel here.

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: This is not Monopoly money. It is just very hard to get my head around it. I want to move on to discuss rapid build. I had a look at the definition of "rapid" and it does not sound like it matches what I am seeing in terms of the timescale for these. I want to raise the longevity of the buildings. I am most familiar with the development at Backweston. It is a sizeable site. There is...

- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: Could I just ask very briefly about the flooding? My colleague talked about Midleton, which is the place that comes most immediately to mind. Some businesses got up to €100,000, which was very understandable, because otherwise we would lose the businesses in that whole area. The one thing people say when areas are flooded is that their biggest fear is that it will happen again, so...

- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: I have three issues I would like to raise. I acknowledge that flood relief is complex. We certainly had some very successful schemes in County Kildare and they have stood the test of time. I acknowledge that it has to be done right and that it is complex, but this is also about looking at the devastation it causes for people. Speed is the big issue here, as is the number of staff. The...
