This afternoon in the Seanad I spoke on Statements on Transport and Tourism with Minister Shane Ross.
I addressed the need to promote rural areas such as Monaghan and Cavan as tourist destinations seeing as it has easy access from Dublin with many facilities to offer. It is great to see the Irish Rugby team taking full advantage of these facilities as they train in Monaghan for the next 3 days.
I also brought up the need to progress the section of road from Clontibret to the county border and called on the Minister to address the long waiting lists for driving tests, which is seen across the country, especially in Donegal.
