Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 9 October 2014
268. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will provide a breakdown of funding for roads and road services provided to each local authority in each of the past ten years. [38797/14]
View answerDetails of the regional and local road grant payments to local authorities are outlined in the regional and local road grant payment booklets which are available in the Library of the Houses of the Oireachtas. Details of the 2014 regional and local road grant allocations to each county council are also available in the Library of the Houses of the Oireachtas.
With regard to national roads, details of the allocations to each local authority are also available in the Dáil library. However, details of the actual drawdown of funding for these roads is a matter for the National Roads Authority.
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.
