Mr. Derek Tierney:

The Deputy mentioned two figures of €1.43 billion and €1.7 billion. The €1.43 billion is the Government-approved capital budget. Over and above that, there is another €300 million to bring the entire programme to €1.73 billion. The €300 million is to allow integration and mobilisation of the services side. A lot of figures are being used so I just want to bring clarity to the relationship between the €1.433 billion, which is for the works only and as my colleague said, within that Government-approved budget of €1.433 billion, there are items to which the contractor is entitled and external factors are now adding pressure to that. Over and above the €1.433 billion, there is an additional allowance to allow mobilisation of services. It is important for anybody watching to understand that relationship.
