Hubert Fitzpatrick, Director General of the Construction Industry Federation (CIF), welcomed the capital investment but emphasised the importance of delivery. “The scale of investment needed to support the growing population cannot be underestimated. While we welcome the €3 billion in capital investment, it must be underpinned by clear timelines and a commitment to delivery. Capital budgets need to be spent,” he said. Fitzpatrick also called for resourcing procurement agencies with skilled staff to ensure the projects progress at the necessary pace.
