Not all. As Mr. Purcell will be well aware, the project is significant for Limerick because of its proximity and location within the city. I welcome the project and thank the Department.

I wish to make a final observation. Perhaps the committee will look at the way capital projects are appraised within Departments. Clearly this project included advanced technology. I ask the Departments to look at these projects on a multiannual basis as distinct from a yearly basis. The project may have become hostage to the way public finances are apportioned and allocated on an annual basis and operated within Departments.
