I suggest that we ask the Minister to come back to us with best case examples of that. It would certainly seem appropriate to look at further educational use if a building is being deployed for a particular reason. If not, however, a possible further community use should be the fall-back position.

I think we have concluded this part of the meeting, so I wish to thank the Minister, Deputy Bruton, the Minister of State, Deputy Halligan, and their officials for attending the meeting. We appreciate their attendance here. I know that they will come back to the members on particular issues.

I would like to ask Deputy Byrne and Deputy Martin some quick question, if they do not mind. This is the first time we have used the briefing document prepared by the financial scrutiny team. They went to a lot of trouble to use extensive charts and graphs in presenting the financial and performance-related information. Do the Deputies feel that has been of benefit and, if so, is that way in which we should proceed?
