I want to come back again to Roadbridge and reiterate that there is no way we are going to we will stand idly by in Mayo or in Erris and watch intergenerational contractors and suppliers who have been there for years, through thick and thin, being pushed to one side. I know the Minister is asking for stakeholders to engage. I specifically ask him to, please, step in on the issue of Bord na Móna and ESB to do everything possible. I want to know whether the bonds can be used. I also want to ask the Minister about the wider situation and what the Government is doing to measure the extent of the problem of construction inflation across the State. How many more companies that are operating in the construction sector are at risk of going into receivership or liquidation? How many more subcontractors and suppliers are in jeopardy? What action is the Government taking to scope out the problem and mitigate against other situations like this?
