- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Sep 2022)

John Cummins: I echo what Senator Blaney said. The issue of foundations has been widely discussed in committee and in both the Dáil and Seanad. To be fair to the Minister and the Minister of State, they have indicated that where evidence is identified through the NSAI, they will include that in the costings to be provided. The Government cannot be any clearer on that issue. A genuine question I...

Perhaps they do not know. Perhaps they have not been authorised to give that figure to this House. If we do the maths on the example...
