National Tourism Development Authority Bill, 2002: Committee Stage.
I sympathise with the Minister because he has no control over Portmarnock Golf Club. However, he should have sent a warning shot across the bows of those who organise the Irish Open golf championship and questioned the suitability of Portmarnock Golf Club as a venue. I do not play golf as I am one of those who think it spoils a good walk. However, I know we have splendid golf courses all over the country that would have been suitable. The Minister may have problems, but I will not let them continue into the future with this sort of legislation.
