Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

It is important to point out that funding was provided to Nenagh in County Tipperary as part of this round for a very good project in that town. The Clonmel project is good. I visited Clonmel not that long ago with Senator Ahearn, before he became a Senator, and had a chance to go to the old Bulmers site and to understand the concept behind the project, which is to bring Limerick Institute of Technology, LIT, into the town and make use of the barracks. As the Deputy rightly says, Clonmel is a historic borough town. It is a wonderful town in many ways and a very large town as well. This is a great project and I am disappointed that it did not get funding in this round, quite frankly.
