I thank the commission for its presentation.

The point has got across to the commission that this is a serious matter for the local economy in Mayo but also for the promoter of the plant which has invested €100 million. Could the same happen today if somebody was in the same situation? Will the commission confirm that the legislative framework has not changed since the original application was made?
