He actually left at the end of June.
And just this week, Transport Infrastructure Ireland have been given approval to start the process.
And I understand they've already started the process of advertising for his replacement.
OK.
I actually have a lot of sympathy with that view, I have to say.
I do think... Now, O'Connell Street, obviously, as Brian was outlining there, along with Glasnevin, is going to be one of the major interchanges for this.
But I do think when someone's coming in from the airport... Now, I know this is not just an airport line.
It's going to bring... relieve a lot of people in North Dublin around Swords, relieve their traffic congestion because they'll be able to come into town on it.
But I think when people...
are thinking of visiting a city or coming in from the airport or even coming in from their homes out that way.
They're thinking of getting into town.
That's what they want to do.
They want to get into the city centre.
So I think it might have been, Brian might have a different view, it might have been sufficient to bring it to either to O'Connell Street or complete it maybe at Connolly or Tarras Street
And then let people get those other forms of transport like the Lewis or like buses if they feel they need to go an extra bit into town.
And as well, I think ending it in O'Connell Street would have been even a bigger statement about the regeneration of O'Connell Street and what we might do there.
We don't precisely know that yet.
We know it's going to be considerably more than what it was, what the figures that have been projected before.
Originally, because that was so long ago.
And so they had to put figures, say to the government, what do you think of these figures?
