Let us follow on. Let us consider it in the context of the Comptroller and Auditor General’s report. It strikes me that the Greenpark site was identified in 2000. Bord na gCon was looking at it at that stage. It was valued at €2.2 million. That was not pursued because the organisation was looking into getting the Markets Field site rezoned. Subsequently, nothing happened. The organisation was looking at the Coonagh site as one of various sites. It put a value of €1.4 million on that site.

Then, it appears, a report was completed for the organisation which examined the Coonagh site. It appears the organisation bid on the Coonagh site without any preplanning with Clare County Council and without the specific project having been approved by the board.
