Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 December 2013
253. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the position regarding the surfacing of the road through Sneem village in County Kerry; the proposed funding that will be made available to do this work; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [52456/13]
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. Will the Deputy please advise my private office if he does not receive a reply within 10 working days.
