To be clear, we did not want PwC to ascertain what the implications of moving would have been in September last year. The direct call made by the Dáil was that the Government instruct PwC to include an analysis of the effect of such a move now, because a number of paediatricians, parents of sick children and concerned citizens around the country believe it is still the right thing to do. I will be surprised if the analysis comes back and backs that up, but out of respect for those people and their very strongly held views - and they may not be wrong - the Dáil called for that analysis to be included in the PwC report.
