Paul Coghlan (Fine Gael)

I appreciate the Minister of State's invitation and will take him up on it. I also welcome the steering group but I am disappointed that nothing in his reply said anything of the moneys which were not to be huge and which I understood had been allocated through the Office of Public Works to Deputy Healy-Rae by arrangement with the former Taoiseach. The Minister of State's reply mentioned talks about talks about further talks and we have had this for too long. Killarney House has deteriorated and is in a shocking state.

Notwithstanding this, I look forward to visiting Killarney House with the Minister of State. Perhaps that visit might kick-start something more serious than what was implied in his reply.
