Any meeting with Michael Stone was in the context of the North East Inner City Initiate. No minutes were recorded.

I would kindly ask the Deputy to engage with my colleague the Minister of State at the Office of Public Works for any information regarding when the OPW potentially entered a tender process with the named companies and the details of any contracts that might have been awarded.

Appointments to the LDA were made under section 9.3 of the Guidelines on the Appointments to State Boards, which allowed for the appointment of ordinary board members to the initial board of the LDA outside of the State Boards process following commencement of the LDA Act. This appointment was made at the request of the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage Darragh O'Brien TD with the consent of the then Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform Michael McGrath TD and approved at a meeting of the Government in December 2021.
