We are talking about €35.5 million of taxpayers' money that went down the drain. I do not think we have received an adequate explanation as to why and how all of this happened and how such a completely inadequate plan was sent to An Bord Pleanála after five years. Where was the accountability throughout the five years? Can we just leave it and say, "That was the previous board and that that was then"? The board is learning lessons, but we have received no analysis of what happened.
