Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail)

In 1992, when I was a Deputy and Minister of State, we secured decentralisation to Roscommon. It took ten years to bring it about even though former Taoiseach Garret FitzGerald opposed it in every possible way. In spite of the opposition of Garret FitzGerald and Deputy John Bruton, we secured decentralisation for Roscommon town and we will secure it again.
