Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Adams has a fixed view. The Minister pointed out last night that the analysis of the cost of under-grounding the North-South interconnector was more than €800 million, with a difference of €600 million between over ground and underground. These are issues and facts that need to be debated and discussed so that people can make up their minds. The planning and consultation processes must be carried out. I want to see equality of assessment for all the areas of the country so that everyone knows the options and the facts and they can decide what is the best action for dealing with this challenge. I have always said that I expect it to be a rational and a common sense discussion.
