"Mr President, one quarter of the Irish GDP is tied up in construction. We could say that Ireland is a country under construction. However, in many of the villages around the cities of my constituency, houses are being thrown up with no thought for utilities, for enough water or sewage, or for the important elements of social infrastructure. Children spend their whole education in Portakabins. Often there are no sports fields or crèches and few shops. Rural villages quickly become dormitory towns with no sense of community. Is that alright with Europe? Does it tally with rural development? I need answers for the people of Watergrass Hill, Glenville and other towns: the people who are struggling with life in shiny new clusters of houses with no soul."@en1
