I would like to put on the record that we are about the implementation of the Good Friday Agreement. As Councillor Hastings said, it is only paper if it is not happening. North-South development is part of it. It is a farce. I have been sitting here through many meetings. The clerk would say that we have been at this same tune for a while and have made no progress. The money for Narrow Water Bridge has gone to the Drogheda viaduct or something else. The money for the road has gone somewhere else. Looking at it as a business project, it is pathetic and there is something wrong. It is falling between stones. We are about the implementation of the Good Friday Agreement. I am embarrassed at this stage that all the county councillors from Donegal and Tyrone and county managers have come here and we have not delivered.
