Neasa Hourigan (GP), Dublin Central

I thank the Minister of State. To be clear, the first phase was started in April 2022 with eight bodies. In mid-2022, this House was told that phase 2 had begun, that it would include 15 bodies and that it should have been completed by the end of 2022. Will the Minister of State clarify whether we are still in phase 2? Has that begun? How far along is that phase? Have we started phase 3? We are looking to move 50 bodies by 2025, so if we are still only in phase 2, we are not even halfway. That would obviously be a concern. If possible, will the Minister of State provide some clarification on the funding? The original package was for €115 million. How much of that has been spent? What is the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform's projected cost for this project?
