As Mr. Reid will be aware, I am a step removed from this. I have spoken to elected representatives in the area who do not have a vested interest in the matter other than wanting what is in the best interests of their constituents. I am asking these questions because this issue consistently comes back before the committee. The question that has not been answered is why this centre was closed in June 2021. Considering all the other centres that require upgrade or potential closure and all the other priorities and strategic plans that Mr. Fitzgerald and others have outlined, why was Owenacurra selected and prioritised?
