Dail Éireann — 2023-11-30
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

The Minister understands this very well. The people in the catchment area involved understand it equally well. They are at the mercy of the traffic on the roads on the one hand and the shortage of capacity on the rail lines on the other hand. They are betwixt and between. It would be hugely helpful if the Minister were to use his good offices to follow up and to impress on those involved in the provision of the extra facilities the importance of doing so at a more rapid pace than we have seen heretofore. While the promise is gratefully appreciated and accepted, delivery on that promise is of huge importance at present in this particularly sensitive and rapidly growing population area.
