Renewables have significant potential and it is disheartening at times to see people upset and communities divided. The conference is an opportunity for experts to give their views, which might resonate with many people in Ireland. It is a concern and national and local public representatives in this country have to deal with the same issue in their constituencies. If it was discussed, it would resonate with many people in the system and some of the fear surrounding issues relating to renewables could be taken away. It would be an idea if part of the programme for the conference dealt with these concerns and that attendees were conscious of that. I support Deputy Moynihan's comments.
