I will direct my first question to one of the lads here from Longford because a lot of the rural towns in Longford are similar to those in my own area in east Galway. My first question is on the CPO activation programme for over-the-shop units on main streets. Many of the towns in Galway like Gort, Loughrea, Ballinasloe, Clifden and Tuam were built with three or four storeys over the businesses. In a lot of cases on the main streets we might have a tenant business at ground level and maybe three or four derelict levels above that. Does the fact that there may be a tenant in situ at shop level on the ground level prevent the CPO activation programme being used?
