Yes. Strand 4 covers smart solution development which has funding of €10 million. This is a programme of hard and soft supports to help deliver smart technology and digital solutions. It is for commercial digital experiences for visitors, prioritising the potential to be green.
With regard to Fáilte Ireland Deputy Dillon asked what are the key indicators. They are what we see in delivery. Deputy Munster is probably familiar with Knowth, which opened last year, as did the Blasket Island centre, the Céide Fields, the National Famine Museum in Strokestown, the treetop walk at Avondale House and the Patrick Kavanagh visitor centre experience, which is located not too far from Deputy Munster. I had the pleasure of returning home to open that. Looking at what was delivered is the best way to assess it.
