Enda Kenny:"It would have been better if both the terminal and the route had to go through planning, then concerns over the pipeline route could have been aired publicly and changes could have been possibly made at that stage."

John Carty:"It was great that gas was found and is good for the economy and for the county."

Dr Jerry Cowley:"I have been there from the start and I chair meetings with those opposed to the terminal every Sunday night; and I can assure you it is local people who are controlling this campaign."

Beverly Flynn:"Even at this stage a lot of effort must be made to allay the concerns of local people."

Michael Ring:"While I believe it wasn't the right place for it, I am a legislator and the law of the land has to be supported. The process has taken its course and we must respect that."
