Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire. The Minister raised the report of 2018. He must know that the community has no confidence in this report. It never did and I understand why. It is not the case that the community saw the report, did not like it, and walked away from it. They said from the very outset that they did not have confidence in the inquiry team, in the terms of reference, or in the methodology that was applied. Essentially it was designed, in their opinion, to give an outcome which it duly did. That is fundamentally what is at play and is at the very crux here. There is no confidence in the process thus far. There are legitimate, strongly-held opinions that are grounded in evidence. Will the Minister ensure that there is an independent assessment of the undergrounding option? It never happened in a clear and transparent way.
