There are many good and positive things hidden away in the small print. I will not have the opportunity to comment on all of the matters relating to my Department. There are, however, a number of aspects I wish to highlight.

The first issue to which I wish to refer, namely, the need to press ahead with the decentralisation process, will have great resonance with Deputies Ring and P. J. Sheehan. I know they will agree that we took the correct approach when we decided to decentralise not only to gateway cities but to smaller places such as Charlestown and other small towns and villages.
