Mr. Conor Falvey:

Just to assure the Deputy that, as pointed out by Secretary General, we draw on the learnings. There are reviews of all European cities of culture. There was a national city of culture. We review those in terms of designing of the service level agreements, etc. All of that is factored into our design. It is challenging. It is important to acknowledge that.
