I agree with the proposal. As I said, I have a concern in respect of one aspect of the FAI which relates to it having possession of land which has being lying vacant for over ten years. Other organisations are not being allowed to use it even though it is urgently required in the growing urban area of Glanmire in Cork.

All of these issues, especially those raised by Deputy O'Connor, are of serious concern. The Department is providing funding but on the basis that it would be used effectively to deliver a service to members of the public. We need full accountability here.
