Affordable Housing Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2021-05-31
============================================================

Fintan Warfield (SF), Cultural and Educational Panel

I reiterate the point we made last week and Senator Moynihan has made, namely, public private partnerships are inherently bad value for money. Successive Governments have seemed wedded to the policy but in schemes where we are trying to keep costs as low as possible, we need to avoid such partnerships. I will be pushing this amendment.
