Mr. Aonghus O'Connor:

Regarding Rosslare, as the Comptroller and Auditor General called out in his earlier comments, we have taken direction in relation to the Garda Vote concerning the treatment of Rosslare from the centre, as have several other Votes. The Controller and Auditor General has raised queries in this regard. Turning to the actual moneys, the way to describe it is that €17.5 million in funding was given to us and then the following day the €17.5 million was discharged.

It is in our books and that is a very simplistic accounting treatment.
