Campaign for a Walking and Cycling Greenway on the Closed Railway from Sligo to Athenry: Discussion (Resumed)

I have an open question for my own information. If snags come up and this is pushed out, would Mr. Kenny see any positive in putting railway down on the line in the short term until such a time as there is clearance to develop it? If Mr. Kenny is saying it will happen in four or five years, I can accept that is short term, but one feels with these projects that they will be prolonged, even if we get a positive report. In Mr. Kenny or Mr. Kelly's mind, if this was pushed out, would they see any benefit in putting the greenway there in the short term for a number of years? Would that protect it to a certain extent?
