We are running out of time. I want to go to Question No. 108. We have a short amount of time for Deputy Rose Conway-Walsh to ask her question.
Is Deputy Fitzmaurice looking for a supplementary on this?
I do not think the Minister would be let forget Kerry.
Thank you, Deputy.
Thank you, Deputy.
The time is up Deputy, please.
Thank you, Deputy.
Twenty-six Deputies have already indicated. I ask that we keep the questions and answers concise and we will try to get to everyone.
