Ms Caron McCaffrey:

We are talking about delivery within the next five years. Some would come onstream earlier than others. In Castlerea, we are looking at building 25 six-bedroom houses on a phased basis, like a housing estate. Those would come onstream earlier. With regard to larger cellblock accommodation, we are building a new ring at Cloverhill Prison and Midlands Prison. Because of the size, scale and scope of those projects, they will take a little bit longer to deliver.
