Some local authorities say that the process is too complex and that there is a significant financial risk. I appreciate that there is. That is why the Government is looking at putting in place an underwriting scheme, essentially. How has Limerick City and County Council overcome those issues over and above other local authorities? Is it that it has just gone out there and taken the risk others are not willing to take? I ask the witnesses not to hold back. We are here to learn.
