I have a final question for Ms Graham. We have spoken in the past about the need to have an orbital bus service in Ennis. It is the largest town in Munster without city status and Ireland’s 12th largest town. It is quite compact, with a population of 25,000 in a relatively small area. Ennis would benefit greatly from having an orbital bus route bringing people from its suburban corners right into the town centre. The town centre's medieval streets do not lend themselves to buses travelling up and down them but there are many good places just a stone’s throw away from the main street that could be used for bus connectivity. Is there any update on where that project is at?
