There is a lot of land on the Limerick to Limerick Junction line at Ballysimon and again on the Limerick to Foynes line at Raheen and Dooradoyle and further out in Patrickswell and Adare.

I will not press the Minister on it but he might consider in the next iteration of the climate action plan to make special provision for Limerick, given the potential that exists. It states that the initial focus is on four Dublin local authorities. From a climate point of view, Dublin is not where the problem is. The climate problem is outside of Dublin from a transport and emissions point of view. I ask the Minister to do that.
