And also just on top of that as well, just to say that while we didn't, our consultation has happened with the parliamentary party who will be representing all those communities, whether they be rural areas or rural areas, Gaeltacht areas and consultation.
And a lot of the stuff that we discuss actually ended up in the statement, which is good.
It shows that the minister, both Minister Brown and Minister Cleary are very engaged with their parliamentary party.
No, just to say, listen, we all understand the issues that we have.

And there is provision in... But you seem to be doing the opposite.
No, but there's provision... Well, actually, we're not.
Because there's provision in this planning statement for towns under 1,500 people, which will mean that you can build estates in those towns and villages.
The other side of it as well, just getting back to the local link, very, very important.

But most people, when they buy a house, they're not buying a house to move on.
They're buying a house to live in and to bring up a family in.
