Question 329: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the number of Government awarded contracts from 1995 until 2004 inclusive that overran financially as a result of jobs being incorrectly specified; if the people responsible for the incorrect specifications were held to account; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The establishment of my Department in June 2002 brought together a range of schemes and programmes that were previously operated by a number of other Departments. Accordingly, some contracts and specifications were inherited by my Department that had to be better aligned with the structure and resources of my Department. Within this framework, there do not appear to be any contracts that fall into the category mentioned by the Deputy.
