Maybe 50 m. In this county when turf cutters deal with the Minister they are told "maybe they got consulted". From the mouth of Mr. O'Connor we hear "maybe 50 m". "Maybe" will not add up in court. What is the distance that Mr. O'Connor would be comfortable with in order that he would not have a problem living beside a pylon? Please tell us. Mr. O'Connor is destroying the process by what he is saying. Now nobody can have any confidence, as the chairman designate will not live beside one and will not tell us how close beside is. One would not get that on "Sesame Street".
