Question 137: To ask the Minister for Finance if he can recompense sub-contractors who were contracted to a company (details supplied) when this company was awarded State contracts and did not pay sub-contractors for works carried out. [42590/10]

The question of payment and the timing of payment to any party in a contract will depend on the terms in that contract. In regard to public works contracts the payment terms of a sub-contract is a matter between the main contractor and a sub-contractor. The matter of State compensation does not arise.
