In April of this year I requested that Iarnród Éireann undertake a feasibility study into a rail link from Ennis to Shannon. My Department is currently providing funding for this study. The company has engaged consultants to undertake this work. A steering group has been established, and includes a wide range of local interests. The study is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
