Mr. Ó Foghlú has made the point that there is huge value in the exercise the Department is going to embark on. My point is that if that had been done over the past five years, this meeting may have gone very differently and members would have had the opportunity to ask questions and learn from the data and analysis that would have been done. We will now have to wait until it is completed. Mr. Ó Foghlú is correct that a range of other reports and analyses have been done but post-project reviews do a very specific job and have a very specific purpose. He made the point that he sees value in them and anticipates learnings therefrom. If it had been done earlier, we might be in a better position.

I wish to turn to the witnesses from TII who have not yet accounted for post-project reviews of PPPs under their watch. Is Mr. Nolan the appropriate witness to deal with this aspect?
