I think so. I have seen many premises rented in Galway city in my time.

We had to fight to stop the leasing of more premises, including a finance office opposite the hospital in the private sector. At no stage were buildings built. I forget the figures but they were astronomical. Such was the high rent being paid for a premises on the Seamus Quirke Road that it was in the interests of the health service to break the lease and pay a penalty of approximately €1 million. That is an example from the past and I acknowledge the position has changed. The number of buildings leased and rented was a waste of money. Mr. Mulvany indicated it is not a waste of money given the number of staff. How many primary care centres are included in the figure?
