Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I was not aware of that. If it is the case that the investor is pulling out, that is very bad and disappointing news. I suppose we should wait to see what the announcement says. If it is as the Deputy says, that is very disappointing news for the region. He can be assured that the Government is still behind this project. This is really important to the future of Waterford city and the south east. The Government will allow time and space to either repair relations with the investor or find an alternative one. I cannot give the Deputy a limitless commitment but I can certainly give him the commitment that the Government is committed to this project and will allow time and space for alternative funding to be found or an alternative investor to be found, if that is what is required.
