------but we have good infrastructure in west Limerick which we will open up again.

I wish to speak about the potential and what the local authority can do to embrace the dormant infrastructure. Incredibly good work has been done. I have worked with my colleagues, Mr. Seán Hartigan and Ms Saša Novak, in the process of putting together the city and county development plan. All councillors in the local authority worked hard and the plan is a testament to both the political and staff sides of Limerick City and County Council. It is a very good plan but there is an argument that it does not look at the infrastructure. Perhaps the Government could be accused of moving the goalposts after all the really good work was done. However, we need to start looking at that infrastructure and the densities and land that are available and think about how we will develop them.
