Mr. Martin Bourke:

In 2007, the Office of Public Works leased the land. In 2008, the Office of Public Works leased a portion of the land in order for hay to be taken off it. From 2009 to 2013, An Garda Síochána, through its superintendent, leased the land, again through the same auctioneer. When this process started and it transpired that that money should have been properly remitted to the Office of Public Works we got a cheque for €131,000, being the amount of money collected for the land between 2009 and 2013.
