That is a charge, not a question. I do not know how the Deputy could deduce the charge based on what I said. He has decided to politicise this issue for the benefit of his local election candidate. The best of luck to them. Most of the TDs and councillors in Cork East have decided not to play politics with this. Most of them are more concerned with making sure we get to a situation where planning permission is applied for and it comes through, as is the case down the road in Glanmire, rather than playing politics with the issue like the Deputy is doing.
