- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Alan Kelly: I understand that but to have to navigate the whole situation in relation to people coming into the country. With ground works and all of that sort of stuff, surely the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage was a more natural fit.

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Alan Kelly: It is for the Government to answer. I just wanted to know how the OPW ended up with it.
- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023

- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Alan Kelly: Yes. Were any of those contractors in any way owned by John Sisk as well?

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Alan Kelly: I will briefly return to the bike shelter and I echo my colleagues' comments. The Leas-Chathaoirleach and I have been around this committee the longest. The biggest issue we have ever dealt with is the national children's hospital. As regards commentary among the public, a €2.2 billion project is put in the ha'penny place by a bike shed out at the back of this building when it comes...

- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Verona Murphy: Mr. Conlon, as Chair of the OPW, is telling this committee and the public in general that the final cost of the modular build at an A1 rating, including solar panels fitted, is €442,000.
- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Verona Murphy: That is not the question. The cost per unit is currently €442,000. Is Mr. Conlon saying that is without the fitting of solar panels? Is it the case that when that is completed, the cost is not going to change?
- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023

- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Verona Murphy: That is an undertaking that we have, even though the project is three times over the initial budget. What happened that meant an estimate of €100 million ended up costing nearly three times that?
- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Verona Murphy: It did not turn out to be much of an emergency response. It took nearly 20 months longer to put the units in place. As for the sites, ere they ever zoned for housing or serviced in any shape or form? Was the figure of €100 million a cost that went out to tender to Sisk or did Sisk come in with that price?
- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Verona Murphy: Will Mr. Conlon answer the question I asked, please? If he does not, I will ask the Chair to intervene. Why did Mr. Conlon not seek an extension?
- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Verona Murphy: Maybe Ms Morrison is aware of why an extension was not sought. Is there anybody present who understands why the planning was not extended?
