Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 3 July 2012
135 Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he envisages the construction of the new road, N22, from Ballyvourney to Macroom, County Cork, in the coming years; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32024/12]
View answerThis Question is in relation to the N22 Ballyvourney to Macroom PPP Scheme. As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme. The planning, design and implementation of individual road projects is a matter for the National Roads Authority (NRA) under the Roads Acts 1993 to 2007 in conjunction with the local authorities concerned.
Noting the above position, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NRA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you don't receive a reply within 10 working days.
