Will the Government consider a scheme I read about in the newspapers recently, which I did not think was serious at the time but it turned out it was? Swimming lanes have been developed on Regent's Canal in London in order that people can swim to work. Would the Government consider that after cleaning up the canals? One would want showers for the canals in Dublin.
