I will be in correspondence with both of the witnesses. My thanks to them for their time before the committee.

My final point is for Mr. Walsh. I will be in contact with him about the N73 national road in north-east County Cork. It is an exceptionally dangerous road. The N72 runs parallel to it. Significant issues have to be addressed. I was disappointed, despite the fact that there was a €6 million increase to the budget of Cork County Council for the purpose of maintaining our national road network, that no progress was achieved. I want to see that being solved and safety improvements being implemented. It is a dangerous route.
