Mr. McKeon can speak about one or two cases but what I am highlighting is not my personal view. I am highlighting the views of the co-operative movement that came before the committee and I am highlighting the view of Údarás na Gaeltachta. At the very least, I ask that the Department sit down with these organisations and ask them what is going on and what difficulties they are experiencing.
