I was absent for the presentation. I am not a member of the committee but I appreciate the opportunity to contribute. As Senator Mulherin said, the €100 million comprising the commitment of €50 million each from the Government and the EU is welcome. How quickly will it be implemented? Time is of the essence here and I hope that by next autumn we will not still be asking questions about how it will be implemented.
