It is something that should be kept within the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine as it was the previous parent Department for its funding. There has been some discussion on the rural regeneration fund but I would counsel that that fund should relate to trying to start new projects and develop fresh enterprise and initiatives in parts of the country. It is important a project such as this, which is half-finished, is completed by Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, which was the parent Department funding it. It should instate a fund to provide for it.
