Departmental Schemes
Seanad Éireann — 2021-10-12
============================================================

Ossian Smyth (GP), Dún Laoghaire

I take the Senator's point about changing timelines and how they may have dissuaded applicants and I will take those back to the Minister. I thank her for her invitation to visit south Kildare. I recently bought a renovated electric car from a company called Range Therapy in Narraghmore, outside Kilcullen. It took a very old electric car and upgraded it by adding extra batteries. It is a business that is involved in the circular economy and I compliment those involved on that. I would be very happy to visit south Kildare. I am responsible for the national broadband scheme, for example, and am keen to go to areas that Oireachtas Members may wish me to visit.
