The Government must accept that there is a “national crisis in Irish infrastructure”, according to a member of a taskforce charged with improving Ireland’s project delivery.

ESRI chairman Sean O’Driscoll warned of “catastrophic consequences” facing Ireland’s water, energy, and transport networks if “radical and brave decisions are not taken to ensure projects get completed quicker”.
