----- or so he was known. There will be nights in Killarney. There is the humanitarian award on Saturday night and a function also on Sunday. All are very welcome.
I welcome the fact that it now looks likely, thanks be to God, that the Central Bank might ease the 20% deposit requirement for first-time purchasers. That is hugely important.

I greatly welcome that.
