Question 85: To ask the Minister for Finance if there are arrangements in place to ensure that payments for work carried out on the new Department of Defence headquarters in Newbridge, County Kildare to the main contractor are passed onto subcontractors for work done and to further subcontractors in order to ensure that smaller firms are not put in a vulnerable financial position through non-payment for work carried out.

There are no such arrangements in place under the conditions for Design & Build Contracts.

However, if the Deputy is aware of an issue in this regard, he should furnish the relevant details and I will ensure that the situation is followed up by my office.
