On a service for people with disabilities, Ms Graham said we should talk to the local manager. There is no better person to talk to in Cork but the problem is too widespread for him to cope with. We could be talking about 150 or 200 individuals. I cannot put a figure on it but I know that a huge number of people are affected. We have had discussions on this and the HSE needs to come on board in this regard. It cannot sit on the fence because it is funding much of this transport service but it is all over the place, and that is the view of many people in west Cork.

Mr. O'Mahony said he is reviewing the possibility of linking the rail service from west Cork. Who is involved in that review?
