I have no problem with primary care centres if they go that route. I have no objection in principle to that. All I am saying is that if the €105 million for the 20 primary care centres has come from the Department of Health, that is not a figure it can stand over. The Department has not produced a figure it can stand over in the past two years and I put the figure of €105 million in the same category.

I have two other questions before I make my last point. The NTMA, with the assistance of the NDFA, signed a loan for €100 million in mid-November with the EIB for wastewater treatment projects. I urge the NDFA to take on board comments I made with regard to wastewater plant projects. It should talk to county managers about this issue and take on board what I have said before it releases further funding.

When does the NDFA expect construction on the Newlands Cross project to begin?
