I have grave concerns about transparency on these issues. In Wexford, I hear the intimation from people that a bigger price was paid because of who owned a site and this, that and the other. We need to look at this in order that those allegations do not arise, from a public purse perspective. What has happened makes no sense.

I will move on because I have limited time. As regards HomeBond and pyrite, can someone please explain how we have only been reimbursed €52,000? I assume HomeBond is the insurance company.
