That will happen now and that is good. We will need certain updates that it is moving forward. It cannot stand still. It has to be driven on.

One important point is that this is not just about Lough Funshinagh. This is about any part of the country, and we see it in Cork, Dublin and Connemara. In any part of the country where this crops up again, we cannot wait six or seven years to solve it. Today’s witnesses will be the test case in resolving this. In fairness to every politician, regardless of politics, because this is bigger than politics, every politician will help in any way to help it succeed.
