Martin Heydon (Kildare South, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I did not even touch on climate change, the measures there and the earmarked €22 billion. This is about planning for our future, ensuring we learn from the mistakes of the past and ensuring the 1 million extra people who will live in this country between now and 2040 have a very good quality of life. We must have balanced regional development and we must sustain our rural as well as our urban communities. I look forward to working on the implementation of the plan with each of the relevant Ministers and to ensuring that nothing is lost in the time of its delivery.
