I will revert to the Senators on the other issues. I agree with the point made by Senator Whelan about the Garryhinch reservoir. He is right and I think it is an issue that should be considered. It will probably fall to the next Government to consider same.

Briefly, Senator Healy Eames mentioned planting which is a valid issue. We need to look at all of these suggestions. All of the constructive points that were raised I will look at. I thank the Ballinasloe group for its constructive approach. I always enjoy meeting the group because its members come with solutions. I will give serious consideration to the points raised by the Senator.

Senator Conway mentioned Clonahinchy. I confirm that I have received the feasibility report. As he will know, the OPW has been deluged with queries about work rates. We will look at the matter as quickly as we possibly can.

Senators Kelly and Power raised issues that concern Sutton and Baldoyle which I will continue to examine and I will revert to Senators on individual issues. I thank Senators for what has been a constructive debate and let us continue to work together.
