Trevor Sargent
Question:256 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Transport, Energy and Communications if he will give a breakdown of the figure of £630 million quoted by him in Dublin Matters, Spring 1997, as being the sum of money being provided for mainline rail in view of the fact that this figure differs remarkably from the sum of £275 million allocated to mainline rail in the operational programme for transport to which he makes reference in Dublin Matters; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
