Speaking to WLR News, Mayor of Waterford City and County Joe Conway says the group has extraordinary capabilities.
"It's unbelievable, and the vision that they have and not alone do they have a vision, but they have the ability to put it into practice. It's a wonderful combination of human qualities when you have vision and you couple that with an ability to see something through until the end."
