My question, which arises from the HIQA report, touches on Oberstown's relationship with the OPW. Does Oberstown have the funding it needs to get the building to a standard that means it is functional and workable for management, staff and children? We have heard that the doors are now coming, over a year after the date on which they should have arrived. What kind of progress is being made by those in charge of Oberstown as they contend with the challenges associated with the building that was left to them?
