Mr. John McCarthy:
The Chairman will see the footnote relating to future costs associated with the Kerdiffstown site. We are not in a position at this stage to say what those future costs will be. The EPA has done a huge amount of work on this issue and produced a report with a number of options. The matter will need to go to Government. I do not want to prejudice a tendering process, but I can say there will be further costs associated with Kerdiffstown. We will keep the committee informed in that regard.
