Dail Éireann — 2025-03-04
============================================================

Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal East

I do. I spent a fair bit of time with the Deputy in the region, including in Youghal and Castlemartyr. I met community groups too. I absolutely see the need for that. During the middle of the day, outside rush hour, you can see the level of traffic moving through. Colleagues and I have paid very particular attention to the submission I have received. I will be reviewing it. The Deputy has advocated extremely strongly on behalf of his community and constituents, and I want to see this project moving forward. I do not want to pre-empt any announcement because I need to consider the capital envelope we have in the round and how we will make the allocations, but the Deputy can be assured that the points he has made, not just this evening but continually and consistently, are well made and fully understood by me. I expect to be making announcements shortly in this regard, in a matter of weeks.
