seven.2.1) Description of the modifications
Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract):
Following the start of the project, it was discovered that more extensive groundworks and landscaping works would be required in order to ensure the bespoke design could be completed.

Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire.
Description of the economic or technical reasons and the inconvenience or duplication of cost preventing a change of contractor:
The design for the mechanical Coronation Garden is an original creation of Diarmuid Gavin and he has full intellectual property rights.
