In 2021, that was presented to the Department of the Taoiseach. In 2022, the Taoiseach engaged very extensively with different groups in Ballymun and committed to funding that. We still do not have in place the senior officials group, which is the necessary element of it. Since then, Cherry Orchard has had access to that senior official group because of a specific incident that happened in that community. Darndale has a different model in operation. I was happy to wait for the sustainable model because that is important. As much as I can advocate for Ballymun, Finglas has many of the same arguments, and there are other communities. With Ballymun having followed all the processes recommended by national government and having engaged fully, it is time that either the Department of the Taoiseach or the Department of Justice appointed that senior officials group. The question is about whether that is a political decision or one that will be made by Ms McPhillips's Department, because I understand that Cherry Orchard was triggered by the Department of Justice, or by Dublin City Council.
