It is unfortunate to see that when the local authority has had 12 months since landing its funding and did not take up the opportunity, it is the people who are missing out on some of the opportunities. On the just transition programme,Offaly comes to mind. While we are bordering counties, at the same time when you look at Eyrecourt, Portumna and Clonfert, you do not have a connectivity piece in that whereas we have two bridge crossings, we do not have any walk connectivity. I am concerned about the connectivity piece. We are developing trails but are we developing trails that are connecting into other counties?
