Mr. Moran referred to when TII starts building this with an air of confidence. He gave a rough timeframe of three years. That is information for the public. Misinformation seems to swell far more than proper accurate information and there is a perception that nothing has been happening, it is another smokescreen, another election promise and so forth, so I welcome that. I am well aware of the Glashaboy water mains and I have seen them break in Little Island. It is a huge main. People can understand it as a result of us asking these questions. When TII does utility services and all these diversions they are huge undertakings, but nobody realises their importance. It is the same as replacing a footpath in a main street when all utilities and everything are replaced. It makes sense to dig once, and only once.
