Most of the questions that were floating through my head have been answered.
I echo the concerns of Senators Mulherin and Daly about rural versus urban.
Mr. Donoghue referred to the fact that most of the IDA's investment is in low carbon industries where it is not a problem or is not something high on the list of priorities. If there is an industry for which it is a concern, are there enough support mechanisms for the industry to go to the next level, to take an industry from one that presented a problem historically to becoming one that will be able to contend with new regulations and commitments to targets that they would struggle to achieve on its own?
