Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

I do not have an answer to the Deputy's question as to the survey work that was done. There are sections on the line from Claremorris to Athenry that will require some reasonably significant civil works. For example, roads have been built across the line in the intervening period. However, these issues can be overcome. I cannot recall the exact period in which the section from Claremorris to Collooney closed but I believe it was an earlier closure and the line would therefore not be as up to date. I believe there are large sections of the line to which landowners and others may now have access but, if that is not the case-----
