Brian Stanley: Please do so. The cost is noteworthy. I submitted a parliamentary question some time back. In 2021, the overall cost in funding from the Exchequer was €9.34 billion. How much more has the Exchequer contributed this year and last year? That included an estimate for 2021 of €1.3 billion. The figure has continued to increase from €495 million in 2015, accelerating to...

Brian Stanley: There are many figures. I am interested in looking at those. I do not have time to analyse that and combine everything. Is Mr. Hogan saying that the Department of Finance is not able to tell me the amount of funding provided to Irish Water from State coffers since its inception? That is the key question for us and the taxpayer.

Brian Stanley: Would it be safe to assume, on the basis of what has been happening and the figures the Department has given out, that we are probably looking at approximately €10.5 billion at this stage?

Brian Stanley: Absolutely. The question is about the total sum. Has there been any analysis of what was contributed by the State in the eight years prior to that, which went directly to the local authorities, and the resulting improvements to infrastructure? I do not see any great acceleration of it. I see much press and media every time there is a new pipe laid. A host of new technology was used in a...

Brian Stanley: A question arises about whether, if funding had to go directly to local authorities, with a senior engineer appointed in each local authority to oversee matters, the results would have been different. I am aware of an example where work carried out by Irish Water was much more expensive. I will not go into-----

Brian Stanley: I know. I can give concrete examples. The Department of Finance will be asked to dig into its pockets for the Shannon scheme. Has Mr. Hogan concerns about the cost of that scheme and land acquisitions?

Brian Stanley: The estimated cost in 2013 or so was €500 million. That was when Bord na Móna showed an interest in being involved. Within two years, by 2015, that figure had doubled. What would the figure be? I am flagging up the concern deliberately. Is it a case of this happening again? There are still significant concerns about the broadband scheme. The Shannon scheme could turn out to...
