Heather Humphreys (FG), Cavan-Monaghan

There is a wonderful road out to the lighthouse. It was in a bit of a mess, to say the least. That has all been funded. That is a good news story. We need to build on that. The town and village renewal scheme was set up way back in 2016 when I was in the Department of Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs. I introduced the scheme. It is a bottom-up approach. That means that communities know what they want and I think it is a good scheme.
