I thank Deputy Mattie McGrath for sharing time. I certainly would like to have a far longer opportunity to speak in this debate. I hope another debate can be arranged as soon as possible. I think it is no harm to mention to those who may not know that some of the things Deputy Mattie McGrath has said are actually correct. I can help him out on the question of the direction of ploughing. That is done for a particular reason. It is to break up the sequence of the sods turning back and forth in the same spot over the years. That is the reason for it; it is quite simple.
