I reiterate that the event went off well and everybody was well looked after. Well done to Mr. McMahon and all the staff involved. We do not want to lose sight of that. I seek some clarification on park repairs. The OPW reportedly sought €924,000 from the State coffers to renovate the Phoenix Park in preparation for the event. All the gates were to be removed to improve the flow of pedestrian traffic. I presume the OPW did not need €924,000. Does the €600,000 figure here refer to the amount spent?
