If I may wear one of my previous hats, I note that substantial funding is available from the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment through the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland. We are looking at broadband connection points in public buildings. There is not much point in having a big building if it is freezing inside. A bit of co-ordination from the Minister of State's Department would enable us to use the energy efficiency upgrade supports along with the funding for the broadband connection points and perhaps some of the urban and rural regeneration and development funds. We could carry out some of the work these facilities require in a more co-ordinated and comprehensive way.
