I will certainly relay Deputy Ó Cathasaigh's feedback. I see Deputy Calleary is present and I know that when it came to the greenway in Mayo, with which I am very familiar, a lot of local work and engagement with landowners allowed that to progress but I am sure this is something that Fáilte Ireland will engage with. It is the early iteration of this, as I referenced. It has four main funding channels for its capital investment in tourism product development to support the enhancement of tourism attractions. These are large grant schemes provided under the platforms for growth approach, small grant schemes, strategic partnerships and other collaborations. A lot of the work they are doing at this point concerns the framework for how to develop the walking trail, developing route options and community consultation, so it concerns putting that initial piece in place around what is possible. The agency hopes to commence the consultancy work and public consultation in 2023 to achieve some progress.
