Jack Wall (Kildare South, Labour)

I thank the Minister for his reply. He has stated on previous occasions that this is a family dispute, but these have a tendency to drag on longer than anything else within the regulatory system. It will obviously involve this particular project, An Bord Pleanála, etc. Is this not something that should be put to bed as quickly as possible? Perhaps the Minister, through his Department, can provide a facilitator who will allow the dispute to be mediated once and for all so that we may look forward to the project going through the regulatory agencies and see the commencement of the Lansdowne Road refurbishment project in 2007.
