Vote 29 - Environment, Climate and Communications (18 Oct 2022) Cormac Devlin: I am sorry. The €7 million was referred to in the Minister statement and I thought this related to active travel.

Vote 29 - Environment, Climate and Communications (18 Oct 2022) Cormac Devlin: In the establishment of that directorate, if only €1 million is being committed to it this year, does that jeopardise the applications for offshore wind?
