Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

Yes, there is a requirement to make an upfront payment.

I know our system for tendering at the harbours has been examined externally and found to be proper. As the committee knows from previous hearings and the last hearing that I was at, we were under some pressure to ensure that properties are properly leased out at all of our harbours. We are working through that. Much progress has been made on that, I feel, including at Howth.
