National Development Finance Agency Bill, 2002: Committee and Remaining Stages.
Looking at construction inflation over recent years, huge money, allocated by the Government for various public projects has been eaten up. It was in double digits last year and has gone up massively over the past five years. Surely we need an independent assessment to ensure we get real value for the taxpayers' euro. That is the purpose of the agency. By getting the real value we will have extra resources to spend, be able to carry out more projects, improve our infrastructure and meet our targets within the national development plan.
