Narrow Water Bridge construction

Summary

Senators welcome approval for the bridge and exchange light-hearted remarks about its future operation.

Like Senator Terry Brennan, I welcome the approval for construction of the Narrow Water bridge. both he and Senator Mary White have been great advocates for this project. I note in the submission on the bridge order that the mussel men of Kilkeel are looking for the bridge to be manned 24 hours a day. If we have no alternative employment at that stage, Senator Terry Brennan and I, and perhaps even Senator Mary White, might fulfil that function.

Senator Terry Brennan can take the Déise.
