While Tip O'Neill said that all politics was local, I am not suggesting that the Minister of State deliberately neglected or ignored the town. He has been to places all over the country. We are asking him, however, to take the time to meet the local flood committee and the chamber of commerce in Carrick-on-Shannon in light of the proposals they have put forward to him and in order that he might be able to implement some or all of them. I am grateful to the Minister of State for his input. I acknowledge that he has been out there doing the best he could in difficult and unprecedented circumstances. I ask him to please come and visit lovely Leitrim at his earliest convenience.
