Would Mr. Christal consider examining what údarás is doing as, from what he has said, it seems it is light years ahead? It considers all its properties because they are all in one portfolio and it can identify where there is space in properties. We have a latent demand. We are talking all the time about the person who is at the door but there is a latent demand there for g-tech or digital working hubs. We have the buildings. We just need to ensure there are tea making facilities, fibre connected to the properties, toilet facilities in operating order, security in the properties and a key access system to enter them. As I have pointed out since I was elected to the Dáil, there is only one Government in this country but all the agencies seem to operate as if there were 50 governments here. I do not care whether it be Enterprise Ireland or IDA Ireland but would Enterprise Ireland consider examining what údarás is doing and for it and IDA Ireland to take a leaf out of its book and get on with the job?
