Enda Kenny: ...do. In fact, if one were to proceed ahead now, without the Court of Appeal determining elements of this judgment, one could put at risk the determination of the national monument at Nos. 14 to 17 Moore Street with regard to the expenditure being paid out for it and the work being undertaken in terms of restoration.
