Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 November 2012
1192. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason for the delay with the work on the N86 road upgrade and when works will commence on the County Kerry Dingle road. [47679/12]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, Tourism & 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.
