Mr. Terence Connolly:

I might add for clarification that there are different definitions of "region". On regional assembles, there are three regions within the Eastern and Midland Regional Assembly, for example. If we are talking about a subregion, which is usually made up of approximately three counties, that is closer to the local model. Having been a contact point in Limerick in a previous job, I can tell the Senator that a contact in every county makes a world of difference.
