Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

I am very happy to answer this question because it is something we have discussed in detail. All the work has been done. We are just awaiting formal sign-off with the Property Registration Authority or permission from Ministers in respect of any remaining buildings. We have got through all legal and technical issues regarding the transfer of all buildings from both the 2002 and 2009 agreements. The only group in which no transfer is happening is that of the Edmund Rice Schools Trust playing fields. We are working out the detail of the sharing agreement to which the trust has agreed in principle. All of the detailed contract work for all properties is complete. As I have briefed this committee, I met some of the groups approximately a year ago to ensure this was moved on. All that work has been done.
