Alan Kelly (Tipperary North, Labour)

All variables will be taken into consideration. All the projects have merit in what they are trying to achieve. We are aware that the project to which Deputy Ellis refers has great merit. The cost benefit analysis across all projects is quite good and we will take that into account. It is incumbent on us to examine all projects. A fourth project has been brought to our attention and we are examining it. It is our intention to pick the best project from the four to ensure it facilitates people in Dublin. As a consequence, this will entail a considerable amount of work. We will choose this to the best of our ability and all variables will be taken on board.
