We will have to cut the time for contributions to 30 seconds to fit everyone in. From the Rural Independent Group, I call Deputy Mattie McGrath.

I am glad the Minister for Transport, Deputy Eamon Ryan, is here. The NTA did not get one penny, aon phingin, to continue work on the N24 road from Cahir to Waterford and the N25 road to Dungarvan. All the politicians in the south east are at one on this issue. A meeting has been requested with the Minister to emphasise the importance of this project and the continuation of the different aspects of this endeavour. If it goes off the Richter scale, the consultants will have only another month before they leave. Will the Minister please facilitate a meeting with members of the Oireachtas from the south east?

That sounds like a "Yes" or "No" question.

I look forward to such a meeting.

I thank the Minister. I call Deputy Joan Collins from the Independent Group.
