Go raibh maith agat. I have another example of the Tánaiste's Gucci Government wasting money. The Hill of Tara is one of the most important national monuments in the country. It is poorly served by the OPW in terms of an interpretive centre that is closed more than it is open and muddy paths for visitors. There is, however, a new addition. The OPW has been building the great wall of Tara and it has been building it for the past 14 years. It is an incredible length of time. Even in the context of the Government's glacial delivery of projects, 14 years must be a record. The OPW has told me it has spent €124,000 just on the materials for the wall, not including labour costs. It will not give me the labour costs. Knowing, however, that the office of posh walls spends a lot of money on labour costs, no doubt the amount is three or four times that figure. A couple of weeks ago, the Tánaiste said he was going to overhaul the OPW. Can he tell me how that is going?
