Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal

The Government has reaffirmed its commitment to the Cork event centre. That is an important part of the decision it made this week. The Taoiseach and I submitted a memo on it to the Cabinet and it had the full support of all its members. We will see an expedited and truncated procurement process. Costs have increased. The Government has already committed €57 million in grants for this project. That will increase. The facility needs to be built. I assume the Deputy supports it. I do, too. The Tánaiste does, too, and is a very strong advocate of it. We need to move it along as quickly as possible.
