Mr. Hubert Loftus:

It was part of our design and build programme rather than public private partnership. It represents approximately one quarter of the programme. Other operators provided many other projects also under the programme, and very successfully. With regard to the structural issues that arose approximately two years ago, they have since been addressed. We broadened out the sample to other schools to see whether the type of issues that arose were applicable in other schools and to provide reassurance to ourselves and the sector generally. From the sample undertaken, no similar issues arose in other schools that gave us such concern.
