On the Minister's response, which I also heard from the Tánaiste and the Taoiseach, the flood relief for Waterford and the construction of a courthouse were done under the previous programme for Government, as was the Dunmore wing hospital development. On the Minster's other point about investment in our technological university, there is a strategic capital ask in that regard of €300 million going back 18 months. To date, €4 million is the capital investment in the transformation the Minister described for third level in Waterford.
