So, we have to go after funding. That is very useful. Obviously, I would like to know what the hold-up is.

Iarnród Éireann got money to clear the line between Athenry and Claremorris. That is very welcome because it preserves the right of way. I understand some work was done around Tubbercurry last year to clear the line. I presume Iarnród Éireann tries to keep parts of that line clear every year to give a strong indication that it is its line and that encroachment is not to be allowed. Am I right in thinking that all it got was a mandate to clear the line?
