It is clear they need to be put on a sustainable footing and secure their future.
My last point before I go to Deputy Bruton is that in Garrettstown, there is an amazing initiative in the toy library, where basically people have brought their used toys. Perhaps their kids have grown out of their toys. They bring them to the local beaches. There are little brackets hanging on the beach wall where you put the toys. You take the toys, play with them and put them back. It is an incredible initiative. Every local authority should be given a fund or purse to establish those along the hundreds of beaches along the Irish coast. We would certainly avoid a lot of wastage in that regard.
That is enough from me.
