Alan Dillon (FG), Mayo

I thank the Minister. She should bring her hiking boots whenever she visits because it has made a substantial difference. There are multisport events and adventure races up and down the reek. It has made an enormous difference to the ecosystem around Westport and west Mayo. I appreciate the Minister's input in relation to securing that funding and also the funding for around Cong and Lisloughrey. Thankfully, Cong is now back in the Mayo constituency. In one sense, they were a bit excluded. I am not saying the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, Deputy Connolly, did not do her part, but they are happy to be back in Mayo. I think this project is really important, with Cong being a really important tourism hub in south Mayo. I thank the Minister for all she does in the Department. I look forward to future announcements in relation to the ORIS.
