Mr. John McCarthy:

I would not like to categorise anything I say as me saying something is not my problem. I am acutely concerned in so far as my own responsibilities go to ensure value for money and that taxpayers' money is protected. What I am saying is it is not my responsibility. Statutory responsibility rests with the four Dublin local authorities.
