I recoil against that. A site of 160 acres is sitting empty. It is no justification to say that major housing projects have not worked out. That is not an answer to a question about a site of 160 acres bought at €29 million. I have a reaction when I hear that. Major housing developments often got into trouble because of complete lack of input from local authorities, including those in Limerick, Dublin and Galway.
