As we know, it was necessary to take down the gates of the Phoenix Park for reasons relating to the management and control of the papal visit. Temporary gates were erected. For crowd control purposes, the temporary gates were taken down before the Pope arrived and put back up when the event was over. That is the source of that approximate cost of €200,000.
