I share the Senator's ambition for Roscommon, and for the west. I will visit the county soon. I will be meeting with regional enterprise stakeholders in coming weeks. I assure the Senator that the Government is committed. One of the key challenges facing western regions is infrastructure. As he knows, the N5 project is back on track, led by and driven by the Senator himself. That will enhance infrastructure, particularly in western Roscommon, so we can make it more attractive for companies to invest. I endorse everything he has said about the commitment of IDA Ireland. It is a wonderful organisation, which year after year attracts new companies. Most importantly, it is enhancing and deepening relationships with existing companies. I am pretty sure we are going to continue doing that in Roscommon.
