I was involved in Cork City Council where we had to do a major infrastructure project on office accommodation in Cork and we got it from start to finish in two years, and that was Cork City Council. They got someone in to design, apply for planning, build and finance it and it is being paid back over 25 years. It took two years to do it and this was for office accommodation. These are hospital beds or hospital facilities so I cannot understand why we cannot prioritise a project like this.
