Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

I will make one last point. It might be seen as tangential but I think it is central. There was a very important report two years ago, which I think was called Travelling in a Woman's Shoes, which was about safety and public transport for women or other users who may not feel safe at night. Some of the investment in Portmarnock DART Station has improved lighting, the public realm and the sense of safety and security and made the station more attractive. That is a really important part of the developments we need in our DART stations where sometimes late at night they can feel just a little bit isolated. Improving the station as well as providing the other transport connections is a part of what we need to do.
