Nevertheless, that is my interpretation of what was written there. That is unfortunate. Notwithstanding that, I understand how the community feel about this. We will endeavour to talk to the resettlement team.

There is potentially a role here as well for the new local authority integration teams. There is potentially a role for the programme I oversee, the social inclusion community activation programme, as well, to see what more we can do in acknowledgement that a lot has been done by the people in Borrisokane and that the people very much feel at home there as well. That is my read of what was written in black and white at that time in a different Department - I can understand how people have interpreted that - but we will look at what we can do in offering people further supports.
