On that, is there any hope the NTA could meet either the regional assembly or the council, on foot of both Deputy Catherine Murphy and me raising it during this meeting? There was reference to 11 options, only two of which are going through St. Catherine's Park, but genuine concerns have been articulated during this meeting, although I appreciate the demands on the authority’s time.

My other point is a housekeeping one. I do not mean to be precious about this, but if there is to be a launch of BusConnects in any part of the country, will our guests invite public representatives, particularly members of the Oireachtas transport committee, to attend it, if that is not too great a request? I appreciate there is to be a virtual meeting and a physical meeting in Cork on Thursday, but it would be unfair to us as members of the committee that there were a launch and we were not invited. That is not a criticism but rather a request.
