The purchase of leaseholds is also part of a process of consolidation of the overall property portfolio. Provided that the money is re-invested in the property portfolio, that is a positive approach which ensures that the State is not incurring a financial loss on the sale of its assets or taking a short-term view of asset disposal. The purchase of sites for new Garda stations is particularly important. I listened with interest to Senator Henry's discussion with Senator Mansergh as to the relative conditions of Garda stations and the Central Mental Hospital. I admit that I have not visited the Central Mental Hospital but I have visited quite a number of Garda stations – in an observer capacity, I should add.
