When the prizes are taken out, the figure is nearly €600 million. The gaming revenue is left, which is...

Water Services Bill 2014: Committee Stage (Resumed) (11 Dec 2014)

Brian Stanley: I did not raise this issue to put the cat among the pigeons but it has put the cat among the pigeons. I heard the Minister mention a figure of 1.3 million and it did not sit right with me and has led to a long debate.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2021: University of Limerick (18 May 2023)

Brian Stanley: We have established that there was a valuation, because the witnesses are not able to deny that there was, which stated the building was worth no more than €5 million.
