I welcome the witnesses and thank them for taking the time. I want to continue from some of the things Deputy Kelly mentioned. I start with the historic building on Wolfe Tone Street and the debacle involving €3.89 million. I appreciate that there is a report on this but it is from before my time. As we are dealing with the final figures for 2015-2016 incorporating the crystallisation of the cost to the State of €3.89 million, can the witnesses remind the committee how this all came about? Is it correct that the Probation Service needed a building for offices?
