Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

The thing to remember about this project is that this is one entered into by WIT of its own volition which the Minister agreed to provide additional funding for following the completion of the Quigley report. It is not a project that was approved for capital funding by the Department initially. This is the institute advancing its own building programme, which is a legitimate thing for it to do but it overstretched in doing so at the time.
