When projects are delivered they are devolved to the relevant parties. In recent years, there have been opportunities for us to explore a variety of different mechanisms for delivery. That has served us especially well as we have had to significantly ramp up this programme.

We will be doing that going forward as well.

There is, of course, as the Deputy would be aware, a clerk of works on the ground, who is overseeing all of operations and ensuring that everything is at the standard that it should be. As I said, we are fortunate that we have been in a position to find not just one mechanism, but a variety of strands, in terms of delivery. As the Deputy rightly pointed out earlier, the issue of provision of places, facilities and variety of facilities that everyone here referenced is a priority. It is optimum to do it in as speedy and as timely a manner as possible. It is, obviously, overseen by the clerk of works.
