Éamon Ó Cuív (Galway West, Fianna Fail)

The Deputy is aware that it would be illegal to charge people for using a right of way. I happen to live in one of the few parishes in which people have successfully defended their rights of way in the courts. I do not, therefore, need to repeat what the law states in this regard. I am no lawyer but, as I understand it, if a public right of way exists, it is illegal to charge anybody for using it.
