Mr. Fintan O'Brien:

We are always happy to look at new ideas in terms of the shared goals of revitalising towns and villages. It is in tandem with much of the investment that we are putting in at present through those existing schemes. We are certainly willing to consider that.

From my point of view, there are some things coming on track in relation to that as well. There is support under the new Croí Cónaithe supports from Ms Graham's Department. There is a full suite of investments and possible approaches there. The key is to make sure we are as co-ordinated and coherent as possible between those various different streams of funding and support and to make sure they are all pushing in the same direction.
