Bernard J. Durkan
Question:47 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Public Enterprise when progress on the upgrading of the railway link between Kilcock and Dublin can be expected; if it is likely that works including the provision of station facilitates at Kilcock, extra rolling stock, extra track facilities and improved service are likely to accrue in 1998 on foot of the funding made available by her Department; the obstacles, if any, to the implementation of these enhancement plans; if the necessary EU funding remains available for these works; the extent to which the funding corresponds with requirements as envisaged; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
