Ms Geraldine Tallon:

It was a categorisation done by the city council and it is its responsibility. In broad terms I am concerned about the findings of the audit report, and it is of concern that so much had to be spent on this project before it came to construction. However, I must state it is a responsibility of Dublin City Council management.
