My concern is that other genealogical projects are being ignored in favour of the Irish Genealogical Project. The man to whom I have referred provides a very important service, and the Cathaoirleach has been given one of his books. He does so at very low cost, and perhaps the Minister might consider forcing funding through the aegis of the national development plan, the tourism budget, the Leader programme, FÁS or the Heritage Council. There may be an area where funding could be provided for him to continue his very valuable project.
