My question concerns the Wild Atlantic Way and specifically the need for Malin Head to be identified as the northern starting point of that route. This is a welcome project and I commend Fáilte Ireland for the preparatory work it has carried out on identifying the route and bringing it to its current status. It offers great potential for tourism right across the country, including the potential to attract visitors to County Donegal. It is important to use Malin Head as the starting point of the Wild Atlantic Way to attract more tourists not only to the northern part of County Donegal but to the county as a whole, thus giving it a particular identity. I ask the Minister of State to give a commitment to doing so.
