Mr. Gerard Cahillane:
Our test is a very mechanical test. We can only incorporate into the public sector benchmark what the private sector is going to provide and deliver. We cannot take into account ancillary costs or expenditures. Dublin City Council will have to incorporate all the expenditures arising in the project. The council keeps a full account of the total project cost.
