While Mr. Doyle is looking for that figure, I will make the public aware that the figures I outlined are not even at the upper end of what is often paid. I am aware of one case in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown where €28,000 per annum is being paid on a long-term lease. That is €700,000 going directly to developers, paying for the house, paying for any works required over the period and handing developers a clean asset at the end of day, with nothing to show for it over the long term from this State provision.
