I also want to raise the transport issue. Some months ago other Senators raised the issue of the dismantling of the rail signal at Athenry. I now hear reports from the County Development Board in Galway on the proposals of Iarnród Eireann to dismantle the rail signal at Gort, County Galway. It is very sad at a time when the Minister for Transport, Deputy Seamus Brennan, has been positive about a western rail corridor, Iarnród Eireann is taking many steps to dismantle rail signals on this line. A debate on this issue would be useful if the Minister is coming to the Seanad. The Leader might follow up this question and have a debate on the railways.
