I will try to avoid those words. I might use them elsewhere but not at the committee. However, there are certainly issues in that regard. Somebody has already resigned. I will not go into the details. It is simply that I have concerns, given that I sit on this committee and I sat on the local council. I see the same type of mantra being repeated. That is the issue for us. That is what happens and we end up looking at it retrospectively. However, I know that the push is: "Do not say too much. This is very important so do not question too much." There was the same mantra with regard to the Pálás Cinema which led to it going up to over €8 million instead of just over €6 million.
