Mr. Michael Murnane:

Not at that stage. The decision was only made at the end of 2016. Bord na gCon held an open meeting in the Harold's Cross stadium at which we met all local representative groups including greyhound people, non-greyhound people and people who expressed strong support for a school in the general area.

At that open meeting we were trying to give the details of our plans in an open manner, but in my opinion it was very obvious that the housing application would not proceed.
