That is what I am talking about. Mr. O'Connor should never bring up something like Leinster House 2000. The OPW had to retrofit all the windows with little mortars so we could open them but now we cannot open them. You would want someone in the room with you to physically try to open them. Having said that, is it not amazing that the OPW kept the whole place running without a glitch but is blaming all sorts of things for the bicycle shelter? This place here could not be kept going and we could not deal with the election of a Taoiseach and all that sort of thing. That is the conundrum. There is good and bad, but the bad is bad.
