There is a financial cost to all of these works. I certainly support the Minister pursuing to the ends of the earth those who are responsible, as well as perhaps the builders and other professionals. The financial cost is having a considerable impact on the Department's capital budget. Will the Minister confirm that he will seek further money from the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform? Will he also confirm that no other building projects, whether small, medium or large, under the Department's auspices are being delayed because of this debacle?
