Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

We need to continue to invest in road access to and from County Kerry not just because it is such an important tourism county but also because it is increasingly attracting investment from overseas. There has been a lot of investment in recent years. I look forward to formally opening the Macroom-Ballyvourney bypass in a few weeks' time which will improve access to Kerry considerably, and also we are keen to get progress on the Adare bypass very soon, which will be of benefit to people in Kerry as well. In terms of Farranfore, I think some additional funding is required to move that project along, which is important. That will form part of the capital ceilings. They are not in negotiation for the budget but they are ones we will have to look at in the next few weeks.
