“Oh! St. Patrick was a gentleman, Who came of decent people; He built a church in Dublin town, And on it put a steeple.”
Henry Bennett
“The Board strongly believes that, based on this offer, Patrick shareholders are better off without Toll in the medium and long term. Patrick has far superior businesses and significantly greater growth prospects relative to Toll.”

Douglas Hyde
“It's a very appropriate price for Patrick. Toll is going to become a very powerful player in the industry.”
