I thank the Minister of State for her comprehensive report. All of the news is positive and I have no difficulty with any of it. It is good news that it is going to go ahead. I will today submit this for publication in the local press because it is a good news story and I wish to give credit to those involved.

I thank the Minister of State for providing clarity for the first time on which Minister is dealing with this issue. I was told it is the Minister, Deputy Harris, who I have contacted and written to on the issue. The Minister of State, Deputy McGrath, told me the Minister, Deputy Harris, is responsible whereas the Minister, Deputy Harris, stated that it is the responsibility of the Minister of State, Deputy McGrath. However, we now have clarity. My focus is now with the Minister of State, Deputy McGrath, as the matter has been confirmed as his responsibility by the Minister of State, Deputy Byrne, in her response today, and I will pursue any further issues in this regard with him. I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Byrne, for coming to the House and sharing that information with me.
