That is fine. I have not seen that yet. I want to know if the site has been purchased. We all know the site to which we are referring but I want to know if it has been bought yet. I am seeking information on the most up-to-date position.

My last question is on the national children's science centre. I do not know too much about it but I have discussed it with a few people and read an article about it in The Times , Ireland Edition on 4 October. The OPW worked on this and can explain what is involved. Essentially, it is a new planetarium and science centre for children with plans for more than 200 exhibits at the back of Earlsfort Terrace, close to Iveagh Gardens. There are planning issues involving trees, tennis courts and so on and the application has gone to An Bord Pleanála. Who has borne the costs of getting the project to this point?
