Yes, an outdoor pop-up pool. It has a tarpaulin. However, I would like to see the rationale as to how decisions are made. Years ago, perhaps in 2000, it was decided to upgrade swimming pools and every county was to nominate two locations. Every county was not equal in that; there were big populations and small populations. There did not seem to be a good rationale, and then it was closed. It was then opened again, and the north Kildare one, for example, was supposed to be top of the list. Then, suddenly, there was one built in Castlebar. I do not understand the rationale.
