Mr. Bernard Gloster:

There are three stages. One is assessing the actual cost. Sometimes, organisations tell us that something will cost €800,000 only for it to actually cost €2.4 million. The first step is the assessment. The second is the planning process and the third is the allocation of the money for construction. There are delays in our processes but I think we have tightened them and I want to tighten them further. Dublin City Council is right that it cannot hold that site vacant forever. More importantly, the people who need that service cannot wait forever.
