Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 November 2015
591. Deputy Colm Keaveney asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport when Transport Infrastructure Ireland will compensate persons for their loss of turbary rights at a location (details supplied) in County Galway; the reason for the delay; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [41702/15]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme. The construction, improvement and maintenance of individual national roads, is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII - formerly known as the NRA) under the Roads Acts 1993-2015 in conjunction with the local authorities concerned. Noting this I have referred the Deputy's question to TII for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you don't receive a reply within 10 working days.
