Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I acknowledge that broadband is not in the portfolio of the Minister, Deputy Martin, which may be unfortunate. Is he aware of the negative impact its lack is having on enterprise? Every week all Members of this House get a bundle of representations on the dearth of broadband provision. I ask him to bring to bear any influence he can on the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, Deputy Ryan, to prioritise the matter, which is a huge problem for Irish industry. Clearly the Minister, Deputy Ryan, is not aware of that.
