Dan Boyle (Cork South Central, Green Party)

I am grateful for some aspects of the Minister's answer. It was also stated in the media that it is hoped that many of these walkways could be in greater use by the start of the 2007 tourist season. Can the Minister comment on that point? As January is just around the corner, does he accept that the criteria for whatever scheme he puts in place need to be available to the public as soon as possible? Final decisions need to be made and the House should be informed of them.
