33 Mr. Collins asked the Minister for the Environment the plans, if any, he has to toll the C ring around Dublin. [21173/96]
The statutory power to levy tolls on this route, to make toll bylaws, and to enter into toll agreements with private investors is vested in the National Roads Authority under Part V of the Roads Act, 1993. However, before a toll could be imposed, a number of procedures would have to be compiled with. These include the making of a toll scheme, the giving of public notice and the submission of the scheme for the approval of the Minister. No toll scheme in respect of the route in question has been made or submitted to the Minister.
