Definitely not. If you gave me 35 grand to do an aul MBA, I might stick around for a couple of years. Is coastal erosion under the remit of the OPW?

The western seaboard, as we know, is rotting away because the weather is the way it is. I am in the Sligo area and there are big problems where I live in Strandhill. The fantastic head of public affairs at the OPW also lives there and I am sure she will be filling in the witnesses. Have there been any applications or advanced plans from Sligo County Council to the OPW to tackle the issue in a strategic and wholesome way, as opposed to the reactionary approach we have been taking in the past 20 or 30 years?
