Mr. John Conlon:

I accept that we overspent on that contract, which is why we subsequently re-tendered in 2022, and we will now be tendering again. I was not the Chairman at the time. The level set at €20 million was probably too low for the volume of work that was coming at us. We should have assessed that to be a higher amount.
