I thank the Deputy for his comments. It is great that a Dublin TD is talking about farmers' markets, which is very important. I spoke about this in my first speech to this Dáil when a number of the TDs from Dublin were talking about the farming community. Farmers put an awful lot into the economy in Ireland and I am great a supporter of farmers' markets. We have very successful ones in Galway and Galway City Council tries to support an organic farmers produce sales in the Black Box Theatre, which has been very successful.

As I said, there is an application in place. It is in process and I hope the Merrion Square project will be successful and I hope that if it is, I will be there to visit it. I thank the Deputy for the question and I hope the application will be successful.
