I propose to take Questions Nos. 142 and 143 together.

It is my Department's understanding from correspondence recently received from the health board that the board has not fully completed its study on the potential use of the property at Myshall, County Carlow. The responsibility for the provision of security at Myshall rested with my Department from September 2002 to December 2002. During that period the total cost of the security to my Department was €18,606.36. Since January 2003, it has been the responsibility of the South Eastern Health Board. My Department has asked the chief executive officer of the health board to reply directly to the Deputy on the matter.
