Joe Flaherty (FF), Longford-Westmeath

Hopefully, I have sufficient breath. The latest phases in major road upgrades around the country for this year have been shelved by Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, citing insufficient funding. These include the N4 Mullingar to Longford upgrade, which has now been more than 20 years in gestation. It is a critical piece of infrastructure for the region and, given the road's inclusion in the national development plan, NDP, there was a realistic expectation locally that this road would proceed. Will An Taoiseach indicate whether additional funding can be provided to ensure that the next phase of this road upgrade proceeds as hoped?
