I spoke earlier about the possibility of public private partnerships. We have had a sad record of public private partnerships in Dublin City Council, including a 16-acre site in O'Devaney Gardens, a site in Dominick Street, a site in Seán MacDermott Street and Croke Villas. The entire major housing development envisaged over the past ten years was to done through public private partnerships, but nothing was delivered. I do not expect we will be going down that road again, will we?
