I welcomed the extension of the seaside resort scheme by the then Minister for Tourism and Trade, Deputy Kenny. That will be evaluated, but let us see what was achieved in that regard as well.

In summary, the background was that in 1992, when my party was in Opposition, we came up with this concept, TDs, candidates and councillors went along with this, and we got a tremendous result. To remove it would be detrimental.
