I am delighted the Minister of the State said that many of the towns included as gateways and hubs in the spatial strategy are already significantly developed and would not be economically transformed by decentralisation in the same way as smaller towns. No town in Roscommon is a hub or a gateway and therefore the county must benefit from decentralisation, according to the Minister of State's statement. When he went forward for the presidency of the IFA he was not let down in Roscommon, but that is neither here nor there. The Minister of State has a great record in County Roscommon and he has many friends there. I believe he will not be found wanting. He has a great knowledge of rural areas. Given what he said, Roscommon must be guaranteed jobs under this process, bearing in mind that it is one of the few counties that is not a hub.
