David Cullinane: Obviously, we will not agree on the commercial viability of both Shelbourne and Harold's Cross. I am only putting on the record the figures for both and the profit that both made, and then people can make up their own minds. What I am interested in then is the decision by the Department of Education and Skills to buy the property in the first place, and also that Dr. Brady, when asked...

David Cullinane: Will I repeat the question?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: Why is Dr. Brady not in a position to tell us how much the organisation will be getting from the Department of Education and Skills?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)

David Cullinane: Was it sold on the open market?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: Was there an open market sale? The answer is "No".
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: Was there a tendering process? These are straightforward questions and I cannot understand why there is a hesitance in answering them. Either there was a tendering process or there was not. Is it that Dr. Brady does not know or does not want to answer the question? Can Mr. Murnane answer the question?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: If Dr. Brady does, I am waiting.

David Cullinane: Recreational use and open space. Is the Department of Education and Skills opening sports fields-----
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: -----or what are the Department's plans for it? Is this being sold with rezoning rights attached or anything like that, as it is the Department of Education and Skills purchasing it?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: Is it possible - perhaps the Department official can answer this - to build schools on that site with the current zoning?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: Why? Is it that Mr. Gleeson does not know if it is the correct zoning or not?
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: It would require rezoning. Mr. Gleeson does know then.
- Public Accounts Committee: Bord na gCon: Financial Statements 2015 (4 May 2017)
David Cullinane: I find that answer almost unbelievable. It is not about a bidding war. One puts something on the open market and there are potential bidders and there is what is called competitive tension in order to get the best possible return for an organisation. That is the purpose, it is not to create a bidding war or to encourage one but it is done to get the best possible return. The reason I asked...
