235. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the impact the result of the UK referendum on exiting the EU will have on TEN-T funding for current road and rail projects including the A5 motorway upgrade. [2032/17]
View answerThe UK will remain a full Member State until it formally exits the EU.
There will be no impact on current projects where applications under TEN-T have been approved by the European Commission.
The planning and implementation of the A5 project is the responsibility of the Northern Ireland authorities. The Irish Government's commitment to the A5 is as set out in the Stormont House Agreement and Implementation Plan - A Fresh Start.
