I thank Mr. Casey. Mr. Conlon said the OPW is not a housing agency but, as outlined in his Chairman's introduction, it is a steward of Ireland's cultural buildings. That is one of the core pillars of the work of the OPW. When I looked at the report I thought the estimate of €5.9 million for the purchase of new sites and buildings was quite low. Why is that figure so low?
