To be honest, I understand that. I think is where we cater for the many rather than the few. I am worried about that, because their priorities always lie with the many. There may be two people who are incapacitated in some shape or form in terms of mobility, who are not being included. In essence it is because of that attitude. I am not saying it is wrong; it is just one area where we need to think about how we can bring both together. I am prepared to work on that. As Mr. Ó Lionáin mentioned, going forward I am concerned about the criteria that will be set down for what we determine a disadvantaged area. I live in a quite normal part of rural Ireland. By no means would I consider it to be disadvantaged.
