- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: I thank the Chair. I want to come back to that completion date. I think, last year, Mr. Gunning told us it was October and now we hear it is February 2025. Is that February 2025 date including the service activation period? No.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Mr. Gunning said a few minutes ago that February is achievable.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: It could be done and dusted in February apart from the nine months' service activation.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Yes, which has to happen before it opens.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: The normal is nine as opposed to six.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Is Mr. Gunning solely getting his information from BAM with regard to the completion date, February being the achievable one?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: We know that. All I am asking is, when Mr. Gunning looks for a completion date and he is told February 2025, that comes from BAM.

Imelda Munster: At any stage did Mr. Gunning engage with or speak to subcontractors?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: It is just that I am curious that, with delay after delay, it is said that subcontractors have said there is not a hope in hell of reaching the target of February 2025. Given BAM's record, and we do not even have to go into that, Mr. Gunning is not liaising with seeking advice from the subcontractors who are dealing with sections A, B and C and are tasked with the completion of it overall in...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Sorry, time is of the essence. I just want to know. Mr. Gunning has not engaged with subcontractors regarding a completion date.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Right, okay.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: When BAM gave that date, did Mr. Gunning ask it for a report from its subcontractors so that board can see first-hand if it is accurate?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: At this stage, you still do not?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Was Mr. Gunning not curious, when BAM gave the board another date, that he would have asked to see a full report outlining the subcontractors' analysis of when they would be completed? He did not go in for the finer detail. BAM said October 2024, then February 2025, and that was it. Was there no delving into it or no thoroughness?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: So the board has reports from the subcontractors?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: Which has amounted to nothing because the completion date has changed. It is defunct.

Imelda Munster: The middle of April. Okay.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (30 May 2024)
Imelda Munster: I am sorry. What was that? BAM what?
