Mattie McGrath (Tipperary South, Independent)

Yes, but it is hanging into Waterford. It would nearly fall in if there was a big flood. The Minister is using his position appallingly. He is looking to achieve savings in local authorities but there was €1 million for his friends in County Kilkenny to put up an office in a shopping centre in a part of County Kilkenny that anybody could walk or crawl to from any part of Waterford city. The Minister is undermining any good work.
