I thank everyone for their contributions. Like Senator Boylan, I think many of the questions have been asked at this point. I wish to focus on the issue of European funding. I know that in Rossaveal and other ports, there has been a shift in relation to European funding. I have noticed a difference in the kinds of applications that have been made over the last few years. They all mention the possibilities of offshore renewables. Are there other things that we could and should be looking at in respect of European funding? I welcome all of the comments that were made on marine protected areas and increased funding for the NPWS. It is good to hear such comments on the record in the debate today.
