I welcome the Minister.

I certainly welcome the Bill. I thank the Minister for the support for my colleague, Deputy Munster's prudent, realistic and reasonable amendments that would protect that area. This is from a Dub, but I can imagine the business that is more threatened. We are not sure of the tsunami that Brexit might bring but it certainly will have an impact, if it has not had already. It is a prudent amendment.

I welcome the Bill. Hopefully, there will be much more investment. I note that the Financial Timeshas listed Drogheda as one of Europe's top-ten emerging micro-cities with most potential. I am sure every Border region and smaller town will blossom and grow under this. I thank the Minister.
