Rural Schemes
Dail Éireann — 2024-10-10
============================================================

Martin Kenny (SF), Sligo-Leitrim

I take it that the Minister of State was not expecting us to reach Question No. 91, which relates to participation in libraries around the country, the number of people who are members of our libraries and how much they are used. What can be done to get more people to use our library facilities, which in many areas are excellent? We spoke earlier about needing more investment. We never thought we would get as far as Question No. 91, but we have reached it because so few Deputies are here this morning. Maybe there is an election coming up. That could be the reason.
