The total cost is €20.5 million. The initial cost was only marginally lower than that. The Deputy must remember that this scheme has been subjected to delays and we have to allow for building cost inflation during that time. We hope that this scheme will not be delayed further. As the Deputy knows, this is one of the oldest parts of Cork city. It is an urban village. The people in that village, this long-established part of Cork city, many of whom are elderly, are crying out for the scheme to be delivered. They hope it will not be delayed further. The funding is in place. We want to get on and deliver it. The money is in place and we just want to make sure the scheme is delivered.
