Great. I understand that. I have no doubt that somebody tendered for the project in all the appropriate ways and the €1.4 million spent could not be better value. It is absolutely laughable in the extreme. Common sense and respect for the punter, the taxpayer, is well down the list compared to the protection of the status quo.
