There are several questions for Mr. McHugh about the role of the councils in all of this. Mr. Garvey's opening statement made reference to Tidy Towns activities. Obviously the councils are insured by IPB Insurance. Could the councils take local Tidy Towns groups under their wing and extend their indemnity to them? Does Mr. McHugh have a view on that? He might also address the questions put by Deputies Fitzmaurice and Ó Cuív. Then we will hear from Mr. Garvey and Mr. Kirwan.
