Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 December 2018
559. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the funding allocated to the sustainable transport measures grant programme in 2018; the allocation that has been drawn down in counties Dublin, Kildare, Meath and Wicklow to date in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53011/18]
View answerAs the Deputy is aware NTA has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure, including individual projects within the Sustainable Urban Transport programme, which has replaced the Sustainable Transport Measures Grant Programme.
Noting the on-going nature of this programme and the NTA's responsibility for implementation of public transport in the Greater Dublin Area, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a more detailed reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
