That remains. I obtained some information from Waterford County Council which is probably applicable to every local authority. It suggested that the allocation for roads in Waterford was 40% less than the allocation made in 2008. I do not know if that strikes Mr. McCarthy as being correct. Those are the figures I obtained. It indicated there had been a massive drop since 2008. I am not quite sure why 2008 is chosen, but we know there has been a drop. We have had a couple of pretty benign winters. The case it is making to me and others is that it is not feasible to provide the appropriate road infrastructure with current levels of funding. Can Mr. McCarthy assist me with that?
