Mr. Tony O'Brien:

Indeed. The rationale for the approval to proceed with the fit-out was based on the urgent need to improve the quality of the infrastructure in the emergency department at Limerick accident and emergency department, but the sequencing by which that funding was approved led to the triggering of a procurement process. We have to go through that procurement process but I am advised by those that the procurement process is being done as expeditiously as it can be.
