I am delighted that we are not a hub or a gateway because under decentralisation we would benefit greatly. I am sure Senator Feighan would agree that the point to which I refer is one of the most significant in the Minister of State's speech. This is something I have been waiting to hear. When the spatial strategy was published I was concerned that the gateways and hubs would be the towns that would benefit from decentralisation, but it is stated in the Minister of State's speech as Government policy that the opposite is true. A county like Roscommon which was deprived under that strategy will now benefit from decentralisation.
