I wish to inquire about the level of detail that will be stipulated in the ten-year national investment plan. Will it outline specific projects? Will it only be an aspirational plan? Deputy Naughten has raised nearly all of the critical infrastructure needed for the west so I am beginning to wonder if I should have gotten my speak in.
Equally, I wish to comment on the impact that the huge growth of Dublin has had and will have on surrounding counties. Deputy Eamon Ryan mentioned the development of Dublin Port. There are ports outside of Dublin that could be developed. If they were developed they would take pressure off Dublin Port.
