My first question was about the Wexford school. The Minister for Education and Skills, the Minister for Finance and the Taoiseach have been highly reassuring that the two schools that were almost finished would be ready for occupation by students. The communities have been told this as well. We are told the other projects will be back on track and will be built on time. What barriers, if any, are there to that happening? Ms Walsh indicated that her company has a lien on the furniture it supplied because ownership does not transfer until payment is made. I do not know, in terms of others in the building industry, if it has been absorbed into the actual building or whether that is feasible.
