I acknowledge that very significant progress has been made on these sites. It is slow and unpredicted issues always crop up but they are all under way at some level, whether it is the finalisation of planning, the tendering process, contract documents and so on. We are realistically talking about 2025 or 2026, as the Minister of State said, for three hubs at least. It is very significant progress. I thank him for the detail and information that is in his response, which I value and appreciate. I wish the Department officials and the project team leaders every success. This is a really good news story. The message is to keep on time lines, keep delivery going and keep telling the public about this plan because it will be received positively.
