I congratulate the Taoiseach on his elevation to his office and wish him well in his time in that office. I also congratulate my county compatriot, Deputy O'Donovan, on his elevation to Minister. My question also relates to flooding in County Clare. I see Deputy Crowe has left the Chamber. It is about the flooding of the railway line between Galway and Limerick just south of Ennis at Ballycar. As Minister of State, Deputy O'Donovan sat on this for two and a half years. I hope the Minister of State, Deputy O'Donnell, in his new role with responsibility for the OPW, makes it his highest priority. Will the Taoiseach impress upon the Minister of State, Deputy O'Donnell, as I will, the importance of this infrastructure and services between Galway, Ennis and Limerick? We need a long-term solution locked in. A solution has been identified, as has the cost. It has been agreed between stakeholders; it just needs to be pushed on by the OPW.

I certainly will. I have been listening to reports on this issue in the media in recent weeks. I know it is an extraordinarily frustrating situation for people relying on accessing the railway line from Galway to Ennis and Limerick. I will ask the Minister of State, Deputy O'Donnell, to keep a close eye on the issue and to encourage the stakeholders to get on with the plan. I will come back to Deputy Leddin directly.
