I represent north Kildare, not south Kildare where the Curragh is located, but I am very familiar with the racecourse, some of the facilities adjacent to it and the importance of the equine sector to the county. It is important that it succeeds. I just wanted to get some sense of what this interaction was and why it was necessary. Has all this money been drawn down at this stage?
