I thank Senator Ahearn for asking for the debate on sports capital grants because it is something that is very important to all of us and to our local councillors up and down the country. We all know the value of our local sporting organisations. I suggest the problem the Senator has in Clonmel is probably replicated in various parts of the country. In my neck of the woods, we have an awful lot more teams than we have pitches for. We have one of the fastest growing populations, which is great to see but the resources need to follow the people. I will certainly organise that debate as soon as I can.

Senator Horkan seeks a debate with the Minister for Transport on aviation. Hell will have no fury like that to be known if a mother's son cannot get home for Christmas because we reach a cap in the middle of November.
