============================================================

Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

The need for this is shown by the fact that we must ask certain questions. For example, are there constraints on the Ballina-Dublin-Waterford rail freight services? I believe there may be. It is this type of question that we need to answer if we are to make a business case for a national freight rail strategy.
The reports and some people claim that rail freight will not work in Ireland. I question that.
