Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 4 October 2005
378 Mr. P. McGrath asked the Minister for Transport the amount of the €5 million allotted for Spencer Dock in the last Estimates which has been spent; the way in which it has been spent; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26574/05]
View answerI understand that Iarnród Éireann is examining a number of options for the location of a new railway station in the docklands area. When the company has concluded its examination, I expect that proposals will be made to my Department. No part of the €5 million provided for this purpose in my Department's 2005 Estimates has yet been drawn down.
379 Mr. P. Breen asked the Minister for Transport when the extension of Ennis rail and bus station car park will be carried out following the allocation of funding for same; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26597/05]
View answerI understand that Iarnród Éireann is reviewing its overall requirement for car parking throughout the rail network and that Ennis is one of the locations being addressed. However, I have not received any proposals from either Iarnród Éireann or Bus Éireann in relation to car parking at Ennis.
