When the Minister is talking with the OPW, she might raise Cleggan too. What Deputy Ó Cuív has raised highlights bureaucracy gone mad. Are members happy enough with programme A? Before the Minister goes, there is another matter she might address. It is something close to her heart and to mine. She is aware of the Beara-Breifne Way, from Beara to Blacklion. About 67% of that is part of the walks scheme. We want to get up to 80% of the route being on the walks scheme. In light of the announcement regarding the shared island initiative, I would also like to see the Ulster Way completed, so that it is linked to the Beara-Breifne Way and we can walk from Beara, though the middle of the country and on along the Ulster Way to the Glens of Antrim. We should then do as we are doing in Deputy Ó Cuív's and Deputy Carey's neck of the woods, by marketing it just like the Wild Atlantic Way, as Ireland's answer to the Camino. I hope the Minister can prioritise the walks scheme along that route.
