I appreciate that the Minister of State may not have the answer to my next question but I will ask it so that the information can be provided to the committee. It is suggested that it has cost €1.1 million to maintain the prison for the last five years. The property has lain vacant for decades and housing activists were evicted from it ten years ago. Please confirm how much has been spent to maintain a vacant, idle property for the last three decades.
