I know that. I have faith in Mayo County Council but it amazes me. The same thing happened with the water schemes. They went to Uisce Éireann. Billions of euro went to that and it was told to go off and do it. The same thing happened with roads but now they give big lump sums to TII and off it goes and does it. There seems to be a nanny-state attitude to local authorities that holds things up for ordinary people. Does Mr. Gilligan agree?
