Obviously those companies that tendered for the contract had to meet certain specifications. They had to have tax clearance, they had to have generated a minimum amount of revenue in a certain number of years to indicate that they were large enough and so forth. I could be wrong but it appears to me that there was an Irish version of the companies set up. Is that not correct? On 28 October 2014 Seetec Business Technology Centre Limited set up Seetec Employment and Skills Ireland as a designated activity company. That happened after the tendering process.
