John McGuinness: Will Mr. McCarthy ask the county manager what the lease arrangement is? The Garda investigation is separate and has no bearing on my suggestions. I ask that Mr. McCarthy establish the facts through the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government. They should then be supplied to the committee. Is the county manager prepared to move against those holding the lease? The...

John McGuinness: Before we move from that issue, I just want to say that I agree with everything that has been said by Deputy Murphy. The project itself is one of the best examples of how dysfunctional the whole process is in respect of this type of project - local authorities versus central funding and so on. I understand Mr. McCarthy's position. He is part of it but not part of that type of position. At...

If ever anything cried out for reform, it is this process about which we have been talking for the past number of years. I would appreciate if he would reflect on it and give us his views. I know we are late but I just want to get...
