After the fact. What about before the figure of €1.4 billion appeared in the press release? People take such figures seriously when a Minister announces them. I would have assumed that each Department ran its figures by the agency for advice on whether the proposed projects would attract PPP funding. Two packages of ten primary care centres were costed as part of the package, but the people who will be testing the market were not consulted on whether the figures were valid. Can somebody help me?
