I accept that. The anomaly here people cannot get their heads around is we have had all this happening for so long with, as Mr. Rowe says, little or nothing save the setting-up of a unit to deal with it only in the last 12 months, yet we have such a vigorous pursuit of people who have a boat on the river or who have a boat on the canal. We all know about the housing crisis in the country. People cannot get their heads around why Waterways Ireland is so adamant it is going to deal with that issue while it has ignored the other one for so long. That is the big thing people cannot grasp. Does Mr. Rowe understand why people would be scratching their heads about this?
