794. Deputy Marc MacSharry asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the date and cost of each review and feasibility study done on the MetroLink and metro north proposals to date in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30717/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area. In relation to the development of metro or light rail infrastructure it exercises its functions in co-operation with Transport Infrastructure Ireland.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
