Mr. John Conlon:

To respond to the Leas-Chathaoirleach, I find this hard to explain and to understand even though I have read all of the files on this. The fact the project did not develop from that 2013 position was because of the lack of funding available to the OPW and to the State over that period. The promoters then came back in 2020 as things improved and sought further arbitration on it.
