Heather Humphreys (FG), Cavan-Monaghan

I look forward to going back to County Cork at some stage. I would love to go back to see how they are getting on with that Banteer project. It was quite an amazing project they put forward. They had wonderful plans for the area and I had a lovely day there.
As I said, the Charleville project mentioned by the Deputy will be assessed by an independent panel of experts. I have no doubt that a good application has been submitted. In any of these projects, it is important there is a collaborative effort between the local authorities, project promoters and communities to make sure they put their best forward and show what a difference it will make. From listening to the Deputy, I am sure it will make a difference to the town. I cannot make a promise to the Deputy but I know all the applications will be looked at carefully.
