Madam Temporary Speaker, those are basically the recommendations of the Committee on the public projects, which it undertook on its volition to check whether there is value for money for the public. The Committee has to follow up with the relevant authority to make sure that the recommendations are implemented and there is value for money and prudency. In addition, in the case of the cable car, a project which is being introduced, should not take advantage of the problems we are having of ferries. It should be something which is better and viable, taking into account the kind of human traffic which uses that channel. It must be something which can do better than what the ferries are doing."
