268. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if funding will be granted to develop a greenway on the Farranfore to Valentia Harbour branch of the old Great Southern Railway line from Glenbeigh to Renard; his views on the potential to create a world class tourism amenity along this route; his further views on the economic potential that such a development would offer this part of south Kerry; if he will take this disadvantage into consideration when deciding on the allocation of funding; if he recognises the positive symbolism that would also accompany the re-opening of the route as a greenway; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
