There was substantial coverage of the committee's proceedings on Monday on that evening's "Nine News" on RTE by Mr. Will Goodbody, RTE's science and technology correspondent, as well as a substantial article by Mr. Harry Magee in The Irish Times last Saturday. I hope I am not leaving anyone out, but there has been an interest in our hearings.

In general, we have noticed - even in our constituencies - that there may not be the immediacy to this problem that we would expect people to feel. They view it as someone else's problem, but it is not. It is ours.
