European Space Programme
5:00 pm
Seán Sherlock (Cork East, Labour)
Not quite but I can tell the Deputy that in my own constituency of Cork East, which is also the constituency of his colleague, Deputy Sandra McLellan, we have Elfordstown which is doing a lot of work on commercial satellite technology and also research on space. I do not believe we should close our minds on this issue but rather have open minds and if commercial benefit can be derived from it, then we should take it. As to whether I am going to inhabit that medium, the jury is out on that one.
