Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I thank the Taoiseach for that. Is there a proposal to amend the minerals Act to deal with geothermal heating? There are quite a number of projects around the country where serious money is available for investment but there seems to be some difficulty as regards the Attorney General's office in terms of underground excavation for geothermal purposes because of constitutional difficulties. Will the Taoiseach say whether there is any intention to either amend or introduce new legislation in that regard?
