Purchase of prison-site land

Summary

Broughan asks whether the Taoiseach is aware of concerns about a company’s purchase of a field involving the Foreign Affairs Minister. The Taoiseach says he saw a report and recalls the earlier €40 million expenditure on land where no prison was built.

Is the Taoiseach aware of this and has he asked for it to be investigated? The Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade was a member of the board of the company involved in the purchase of the field.

I saw an excerpt of the programme which dealt with a foundation for elderly people. I do not know the details, but it reminds me of the great expenditure on a field to build a prison some years ago.
