I thank the Minister for his reply. We were promised in the programme for Government that a social dividend would be returned for our massive investment in the banking system. I am disappointed there has been little movement on this issue. Has the Minister identified other sites as having potential for use for cultural purposes? On a related point, what steps has the Minister taken to secure the future of 14-17 Moore Street, Dublin? Does the Minister agree this is an unprecedented opportunity in the run-in to the 100th anniversary of 1916 to create a cultural quarter incorporating Moore Street and the surrounding streets and lanes, with the GPO at its centre, in the heart of Dublin city?
