They are two excellent points. As a Deputy, I often find that we spend a lot of our time in the basement in Leinster House looking through important legislation on housing, marine, planning, directly elected mayors, and electoral reform. Often we should be out and around the counties. It is about trying to fulfil the role that one should as a national legislator. Dr. O'Malley and Mr. Moran have both made very good points on that.

I will move onto the last Fine Gael slot.
