I compliment the Government and the Minister of State, Deputy Parlon. I hope he will also ensure that the relocation of the sections of the Department of Agriculture and Food from Sligo to Leitrim will take place. The site has been purchased in my home town of Drumshanbo and is now at the conveyancing stage. That decision was pursued by the Government not as part of a decentralisation decision, but as a result of long recognised overcrowding at the Department offices in Sligo. I hope the Minister will be able to pursue it to its conclusion on the basis that we have the decentralisation programme in place.
