Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

The Deputy should not put words in my mouth. I have not said that we are not going to build in Abbottstown. I have been more than fair in my effort to tell the Deputy precisely what I am going to do. I have nominated the particular facilities that I see as a priority to be built at Abbottstown. The proposals for all of these facilities are only going to planning and everything depends on getting planning permission. We do not know how long that process will take. I could not have moved more quickly than I have at this stage.
