Aren't these panels meant to be part of the customer feedback part of the memordandum's of understanding that set out to show the min service level IE will provide to the travelling public? I could be wrong there.
While P11 do a fantastic job for commuters, surely there should be some independent way of ensuring the travelling public and the tax payer get value for the hundreds of millions of Euro we subsidise the CIE group with each year.
IE have got wise with the PAC by putting in massive costings on projects, and time frames which are far longer then needed to complete these projects.
The cost of the Docklands station is a classic example. Considering they owned the land, the build cost seemed very high to me, but still was way under budget.
Also, I assume the PAC don't look to ensure the services provided represent value for money. Hence, we are left with the Dept of Transport.....
