Mr. Fred Barry:
We received a breakdown totalling €6 million but we did not accept all of it. Issues also arose in respect of quarries and material that should have been made available. All of the PPP construction contracts provide that if the State's standards change during the course of construction, the additional costs are picked up by the State. That arose in regard to CIE standards relating to bridges over railway crossings.
