Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (Revised) (12 Feb 2019) Kevin Moran: Like any Minister, I would not like to take any cut, but when asked to do it, I had to find a way of doing it.

All I can say to the committee is that it will take place on the flood side of the portfolio.

On the other six that are due to proceed to construction, some may be delayed in the planning process.
